Sorry to take so long getting back but I was out in the west for a week. I have a ton of pictures. I photographed every step of the way in building it and it's two cousins, a pair of Special inspired all mahogany P-90 guitars.

It sounds like a Les Paul, and it feels like a Les Paul. To my ears, a very warm tone. I have a Fender Blues Junior, and a Legend 60. My Blues DeVille died and I am waiting for it to come back to the living so I can see if it has that bluesbreakers tone.

I a/b'd it with a retopped historic through a Sovtek Mig 50 and it held it's own. What I hear more than anything is the labor of love and the pride I take in it. Corny maybe, but that's what I hear.

Orders? Not at this time. I think I 'm going to build a motorcycle next.
