Beautiful guitar Carl. I've used manz burl in some duck calls. Love the stuff. How in the world did you get straight pieces long enough fir binding??
And.....without cracks???

Thanks for the complements, Folks. Very appreciated. As you can see, I'm not really a traditionalist with materials or design.
Kevin, a lot of the pieces I cut have been standing dead and dry for many years, so they don't move or crack much more than they already have.
