That sounds awesome. Interested to see what the mahogany and walnut combo sounds like. Are you getting to choose the pieces of wood for the body, neck and fretboard?

Are you thinking jet black ebony, or some with chocolate brown streaks?

I'm talking to him about a neck for my paddy body, guess you're in queue before me now!!

It's all yours mate, but I wouldn't have chosen the offset inlays - I've cutally like them but on top of that you see them on "not so premium" guitars made in the east.

The N2, and I have a Cratfer thin body acoustic that has them.

I have 3 neck orders that I will be working on at the same time, this should save me time with equipment set up and tear down between each neck. Starlovin will be posting pics along the way....

Just me mate, I think I saw them on a couple of non premium guitars and now I have a mental association.

Anyone (these days) labelled as 'mental' is usually known for being 'Colin Hunt' (annoying...):
