hey Rob, not the fretboard, the back of the neck looks like a flat D profile. Sure it is nice to play

Stunning mate. 11/10.
@Woks
Sorry mate, I get it now. Yeah its probably a weird shape, but it's 50mm wide at the nut and 60 where it joins the body and I have never owned anything like that. So I just shaped it by feel and stoped when it felt good to me. Its probably all wrong but too late now LOL.
@IRL
Thank you Sir.
no worries Westie07, no drama, as long as its comfy for you to play all good.

@Andrew
Thanks mate.
@OliSam
Hey Sam, it's the first guitar that I have owned that isn't the standard 42mm. That and the longer 650mm scale length means I'm still trying to get used to it.
@Fred
Thank you very much Fred.
It's actually 3 strips of ply. I could have used only one and used more pine but I thought that the extra marine ply would add some structural beef to it. Time will tell.
Thanks guys

Hey Rob, you should be very proud of your efforts with this one as I reckon it looks as sweet as some of those sexy acoustics Zandit keeps putting up on the Beautiful Guitar thread.
Bravo.
