Sorry to interrupt, but that is, indeed, the darkest, most beutiful piece of mahogany, i´ve ever seen! Please tell me that´s not just the color-setting, but that that color is going to be used as the final... Man, i´m getting more and more astonished by shamray´s amazing work as the days passes on... Keep up the good work guys!

that will be the final color (its just going to get lacquer clear-coats over it).

We copied that particular shade right off of my old 1959 Melody maker, which has aged to that nice brown color...

They matched my cs-1983 with the colour of Michael's melody maker too...it is even more beautiful in real life.

Personally, I love that satin look of it. It gives it the "played" look. If I were u, I would keep it like that, but I'm sure u want to put some clear cloats on it so it looks gloosy.

i dunno... my old melody maker is very, VERY "played", and it also has 100% spiderweb checking all over it. But its still pretty glossy, despite all that! :)

Thanks for reminding me Hack, I really want a satin look as apposed very shiny.  But I guess when the clear coats go on we all can take a poll on which we like.  I'm sure Maxim can over buff it.  It's up to the Master Maxim.

I wish I could get a close up because there is some really nice grain and some flame up by the headstock.  Just a little.

I am sorry Michael, I didn't mean for you to take new one's.  I just wanted people to see how well made this is and how good the wood grain is, especially in the upper neck.

It's getting hard to be patient when it's so so close, but worth the wait.  Michael how heavy is this baby.  I  am curious if you have picked it up to feel it.  Any word on the parts.

Hey guys where did you find this picture, and who's guitar is it.  Pretty cool to see a similar looking guitar all put together.  Of course something like that would go for 250,00- 350,000 dollars.  Hopefully mine will be worth that in 50 years right Michael and A.ShamRay.

That guitar belongs to Joe Ganzler. I think there is plenty of information about it at the Les Paul Forum.

Make sure when you send parts to Michael that you follow his exact instructions, and please make sure you put the right address numbers.  I was a really stupid guy when I wrote one number wrong and it sat at the post office over there. Dahhhh!!!!  Thank god Michael was on the ball and helped me on that one.  My parts are here, thank god.  Unfortunately my Crazyparts did not come in from Germany, so I had to order from RSGuitarWorks.  There aged parts are dead on.  I totally recommend.  I believe Michael likes them too.  Thank you Big Mike.

Big H We have decided to Relic the Hurricane.  Stepanov and Michael thinks this guitar is a good candidate to age a bit.  I hope this will be the first one they do to start a trend.  How is your X doing Bubba.  I'm sure it sound better and better ever day.
