Woohoo!  At last my long wait is over.  Boy was it worth it!  And I'm the first to post a Further in the showcase.  

 

  I'm overwhelmed!  Thanks to all at Alembic  Mark , feeling very grateful

Wow! That is absolutely stunning. Congratulations Mark, well worth the wait. 'Patience' indeed. Next time I'm down in Yorkshire I'll figure a way to smuggle her out of your house. Looks like you'll be enjoying Christmas this year.
 
All the best
 
Graeme

Love the inlays!  To quote Graeme, Wow!  I've got to learn guitar one of these days.  What do you play it through?
Congratulations

Mark,
 
The only thing I'd do differently is...give it to me! Absolutely beautiful instrument. Enjoy.

Congrats Mark!! Beautiful guitar - I absolutely love the birdseye - and the inlays are fantastic. Don't forget to come up for air from time to time. =)

Thanks guys.
 
This is my first, so my feet won't touch down till some time in 2006, maybe!
 
I've got a Fender Blues de Ville, 2x12 at the moment which has never sounded so sweet or so quiet.  I never imagined a guitar could be this good.  Elves indeed.

Very nice, Mark! I'd like to see more of those FB inlays...the phases of the moon, I'm assuming?
 
Cheers,

That's beautiful.  Congrats.  Is the tailpiece area inlay medicinal?  Bill tgo would know.

Looks like a Sativa to me, maybe a cross with a touch of Indica.  I'm sure it has great medicinal properties that make anyone playing this guitar feel real good!  LOL.
