Very first sounds

OK, so it's not in tune, and there is a lot of background noise (buffers are running, etc.), and the string height is still all wrong... but here are the first sounds of this guitar strung up. When it's all finished and finalized, I'll do this again, in tune, and in a quieter place, and will post it. But it was exciting and I wanted to share...

Sounds really good. I love the idea of the compensated bridge for the B string. I always wondered how that was done, and your picture clearly shows how. I have always made mine straight across.
When do you come home?

Hey Hank, tune your guitar!

And wow, all that work and her voice is nearly ready to start. Just think what she'll sound like in 10 or 15 years.

Brava! Where's the recording of the finished and finalized instrument?
