Completed March 2005. Koa back and sides (a gift from my good friend Kit Simon, who owns the Olde Town Pickin' Parlor in Arvada, CO - www.picknparlor.com), bearclaw sitka spruce top, Macassar ebony bridge. I measured a '30s Kona that belonged to Kit and based my design on those measurements, adding a larger and thicker ebony bridge plate. The guitar sounds very sweet and has tons of sustain.
