The photograph is (incomplete) Guitar. I took a couple photographs to show
an idea of the outcome of this guitar. When I first designed this guitar I had
plans of using a wood neck, I completed half the fret board inlay work and then
decided to use a carbon fiber neck. In this Photo I simply sat the old fret board
on top of the neck to show an idea of what I am shooting for. Once complete I
will have a carbon fiber neck with Piano key Mother of pearl inlays.
Guitar features include Steinberger TransTrem with Acoustic Bridge Pickup
system installed. 3 Seymour duncan Invader Pickups and one seymour
duncan Microphone pickup. A super switch pickup selector and 4 (EQ faders)
(Not Pots) See figure "B".
This guitar is an electric acoustic with the only transposing tremolo in the
world and a carbon fiber neck! This is a sound machine!!
My final plan is to perform a sick airbrush paint job on the body and complete
my inlay work into the carbon fiber neck. I will also have to modify a custom
electronic schematic for the slider pots and then this masterpiece will be
complete!!
Once it is complete I will be using this guitar to record an album, this will give
you a chance to hear what this guitar can do. I will perform my album with this
guitar and I may Auction it off if I decide to part with this model.

We are also currently working on the first "Honu Guitar" a corroboration of
three artists, Dale Zarrella will draw the Turtles and art for the guitar,
Mark Dill will perform the Luthery and I will design the guitar and
perform the Inlay of Dale Zarrella's Art.
The design will be just like the above Hawaiian Koa Jazz Guitar with the
exception of Having Honu/Sea Turtle Inlays on the body, fret board and Head
stock.
