I started building guitars barely over one year ago. I've now finished four, and have five more in process. Oh, and I started working with wood of any kind about 18 months ago.

45-years old, live in San Diego, CA with my wife and pair of boys.

My build theme is Tortoise & Turquoise. The plan is a semi-hollow shape I came up with, which is a traditional looking descendant of the Tele and LP, but with many unique features, including hidden controls and a semi-laminate body, all finished to show off the wood itself. It has been planned over and over in my mind and I cannot way to see it come to fruition.

Thank you!
