Description by Hesh: This guitar is built to the OLF SJ plans with many modifications along the way. As mentioned before my girlfriend did the inlays and it was her first ever attempt at inlay. The guitar sounds great with overtones every where…… In fact muting all other strings when tuning is a must in as much as plucking any single string gets the others to sounding off. The neck shape was taken from a Taylor 512 and I have to say that I really like it.

The tuners are Gotoh 512 "Bluegrass" with a 22:1 tuning ratio. Now that I have used these tuners a bit I would highly recomend them to any one who wants to tune a guitar with a high degree of precision.
