Rock-tober COTM
« on: October 02, 2007, 07:02:41 PM »
Bill!
 
Let me be the first to say HOW FREAKIN' SWEET!
 
I know you've had it for a while, but that is one of the most sublimely beautiful machines ever made by human hands.
 
Don't be afraid to put some dings on it.
 
P.S.
 
I suspect there's more than one reason you're calling this one Woody...

Way to go Billy boy! of course we all knew this was going to be COTM one day. All those trips to the mothership certainly paid off ;-)
 
A well deserved honour for a fantastic guitar.

I wish I could drop by on Fridays.
 
Beautiful instrument too!

Makes me wish I was a competent guitarist.  Then I could really covet your new Further (Since I'm not, I can only generally covet your guitar.).  Congratulations.  Sweet looking ax.

Hi Bill,
I saw the factory to customer thread just last night of your Further.  What a beautiful guitar!  The inlay work is sweet and the top/back are incredible.  Wishing you the best of health to play that beauty!
Best,
Art
 
ps: Falling asleep at midnight with guitar in hands was great!  Certainly a hazard of any Alembic

Bill,
what shall I say: I am jealous.
Wow, great guitar.
Just saved it on my Mac as background....

Eh...it's Okay.........
 
JUST Kidding Bill. This is a very sweet axe. One of these days I may have me an Alembic guitar but a fretless bass is probably first.
 
Congrats Bill!

Bill--
 
Beautiful, beautiful piece of art--and you can even make music with it as well!!
 
Congratulations, and enjoy.  Perhaps we can see it in person at the next N. California Alembic gathering--

I like the politically correct wording used to describe the inlay on the back of the headstock.
