"He who works with his hands is a labourer.

He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman.

He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist."

Peri's "Rock'n'Roll" Guitar

Whew! Just finished an OM with cutaway. Sounds beautiful. My daughter Peri has requested I make her a "rock'n'roll" guitar for her 7th birthday in November. Sparkly purple and pink? Hmmmmmm.........Lucky for me I have an old stratcopy body in the shed. Time to get started.
