if you could design your own guitar (and it was realistic... not masters grade brazillian rosewood with highly figured redwood and abalone purfling with a full fretboard inlay and an inlay on the back... ok NOTHING LIKE A MARTIN D-50) what would yours be?
mine:
- Sitka Spruce Top
- Cocobolo Back/sides (Masters Grade)
- Flamed Koa Binding
- No Pickguard
- ES Pickups
- Florentine Cutaway
- Cindy OR Gothic Vine inlay
- Abalone Rosette
- Ebony Headstock with gold tuners/buttons
- Headstock/bridge inlays to match the fretboard inlay
- Abalone purfling on top (just as long as its not all those features
)
anyway.... im betting that would be expensive... wow... it would be amazing though..

... obviously this is a taylor because if the ES system and inlay choices... i just thought this would be a fun topic
