Hey Mica-
Did you happen to get any of my messages last week?
Best-
Ezra

I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict a continuation of the current trend to guitar COTMs.  Everything about this one just works.

Sorry, Ezra. I did get your emails, and I meant to get back with you. After dad finishes up with Paul's calibration on Mele Aloha, he thinks there's just a couple of hours left to tidy up your electronics. He's really happy with the way they are coming out. This means that we're shooting for shipping on  Friday for Saturday delivery if you think you'll be around. Otherwise, we'll coordinate a time that works our for you to get it.

Thanks Mica-
No need at all for an apology, I know everyone is super busy. Glad to hear everything is coming along so well. Saturday sounds great! Maybe just give me a call before it ships so we can confirm the details...

I just LOVE LOVE LOVE that Nickel Ezra!!!
 
Beautiful instrument.
 
Congradulations and Merry Christmas, Paul

Sorry there, Ezra. Your electronics didn't quite make it for a pre-Christmas shipment. Whaddaya doing next Friday?

Getting a new guitar?
 
Next Friday sounds great!

Well, it's finally done!

 
I played and tested it thoroughly tonight. I think you are really going to like the way it plays and sounds. The neck is very nice.

Mica-
Totally amazing! It looks fantastic!
Great to hear you got to spend some quality time with it this evening- Can't wait to do the same- Will give a call tomorrow-
Thanks so much for everything-

On the way home I remembered that we need to put your custom knobs on the guitar. I'll make sure that happens before we ship!

Yeah, I was kind of looking at that but couldn't really see in this picture if the ebony knobs were on it-
Thanks again...

Congrats!!  It's such a cool guitar, literally from top to bottom!  The control layout looks really nice too!

Hey Mica-
It arrived safely this morning and it's awesome!
The pictures on this thread, while very compelling, certainly do not express the intricate beauty of this instrument- The subtle stripes of gray within the ebony veneer on the peghead are stunning- The overall fit is excellent for me as well- My left hand tucks perfectly against the volute in the first position- It's super comfortable to play- And the sound, let's just say it goes way beyond my expectations- Ron did an outstanding job with the electronics- I've been playing guitar since I was 12 and it's as if I've never really heard what I was playing until today- The clarity is flat out amazing and the ability to   blend the clean and processed sound via the wet/dry mix control is a really great feature-  Please pass my sincere gratitude along to everyone that contributed to this project-
Thanks again for everything-
-Ezra

That is stunning! Love the no-inlay neck too - very elegant!

Beautiful!
