Custom Guitar

I don't know why I haven't posted about this, but I'm having an acoustic guitar hand built to my specifications. The person doing it is Michael Robicheau http://mikerobicheau.blogspot.com/. From what I've seen so far, the craftsmanship is excellent. The attention to detail is unreal. The quality of work is what I'd expect to see on a $2000+ guitar. The design I chose is modeled after the Alvarez AD90. I wanted to incorporate most of the things I like about electric, but in an acoustic. A deep cutaway, ebony fretboard, jumbo frets, pinless bridge, low action. I'm extremely excited for it to be finished, I can't wait to try it out. If you are interested in repairs, set-up or having a guitar built, I would highly recommend Mike.
