The
head stock is bound with matching neckwood strips, and strips
from contrasting wood. This one is done with walnut. Carpathian
elm burl covers the face and gives it a leather look. The D S
logo is inlaid ebony. The nut here is abalone shell. Gold tuners
add richness. |

My
Shop
The
guitar pictured on this web site is made from the piece of curly
maple to the right. I placed the strat body in front for an idea
of the size of the wood. Both the neck and body are cut from
this.
