This is my Personal Double 8 GeorgeBoard.

The Walnut slabs are book-matched to each other. Even the pickups are book-matched. Countless hours are invested into the Micron Finish.

Enjoy the Photos.

Gary
Can't they make a mans sized version of that Emmons for you? HA!
Man that Emmons looks like a toy next to you.
What are you 6'6"?
Very, very, nice steel.
I heard the Emmons guitars sound really super good.
