Comments: Comments: I special ordered this one for myself and rapidly discovered the Curly Koa neck binding, while a beautiful touch, is hard for my old eyes to see under stage lights. I have already commissioned John to build another with his usual white neck binding. This really is a very special guitar! The body was built slightly deeper for extra punch. Not only does this guitar have Curly Koa neck and body binding, but a beautiful Koa headplate as well. I have played this guitar in a couple of my recent videos so you can get a good listen. A truly gorgeous Northwood short scale OM!
