Mike, that is one SICK guitar! With the vintage decal it reminds me of the Harold Morrison wraparound that Buddy posed with on the cover of Country Song Roundup back in '66.

Great polish job also, but do your feet slide off the pedals by themselves? ;)

Ha! Thanks Herb...

Harold's Wrap was the influence on this build for sure right down the the trim on the edge of the apron. Just a very cool look to me. As far as the polish goes, no problem for me with slippage. This guitar is owned by Daymon LaPoint now who had a moment where he put it up for sale. He wised up and decided to keep it, good choice.

I will not be in Dallas this year so I'll catch up to you next round, maybe Phoenix :)
