The May Featured Custom is up!
« on: May 07, 2012, 06:14:49 PM »
Congrats David!  This month's Featured Custom has one of my favorite woods; Chocolate Quilted Maple!  I love this wood!  And it looks perfect on this body.  Makes me want to order one just so I can look at the wood up close and personal.
 
Nicely done Mica and all the folks at the shop.
 
[edit] Oh; and check out the inlays!

The figuring in the maple is beautiful.
This is a classic piece of art.
Congratulations

Congrats David,

The Further & Tribute models have an effects loop pre-volume a la Garcia, Terry. The second jack is TRS; pre-volume signal goes to effects down one line & back to the guitar via the other, the idea being that the effects see the same signal at all times, and thus do not change characteristics with volume changes.

That chocolate quilt is awesome.  How clear does that axe sound?  Reminds me of the Pacific surfing waves, if instead of water, chocolate was the liquid to surf on.  And I loves my chocolate!  Please describe the tones it generates and congratualtions!
