Jorge already has this guitar, but it's only fair to post a completed picture:

I so love this guitar!

That's a real beauty. Spalted maple always seems to make nice guitars.

Whatever happened with this guitar?  The last I heard, it was for sale.

Is that a fleur-de-lis on the headstock?

Thank you all for the kind comments.  I just want to thank all of you that worked on this instrument.  I know that I echo all the comments that others say when they receive an instrument from Alembic but this guitar truly surpassed all of my expectations.  
I don't know if anyone else has had the experience of getting an instrument that feels right.  I have been to music stores and played a lot of guitars that look exactly the same as each other but when you play them you can tell a lot of difference.  Some feel way off and some just feel very good.  Although I can't explain exactly what it is I believe that it goes way beyond just a good setup.  It is the spirit of an instrument that was well built by people who love what they do.  I am truly honored to have this guitar.  
It is true that I had to put it up for sale.  Sometimes life slaps you in the face a little.  As I told Mica, I will do all I can to be able to keep it.  I hope 2010 is a great year for all of us here.  -Jorge
