There is a new hollow-neck Hawaiian guitar builder out there that I want to tell you about. Below are some pictures of the guitar he recently built for me. The guitar looks beautiful, but it sounds even better. He also built me a 7-string Mahogany - also amazing. Troy is a great guy to work with, and his prices are really low (for now, at least). Get one while you can still afford him.

Troy Marcio's email: troymarcio@yahoo.com

For those of you on Facebook, here is a link to his profile where you can see some of his other guitars. http://www.facebook.com/photos.php?id=1119354306

Dan, that is one beautiful piece of workmanship you have there. Please take some shots of the 7 string too. Troy is obviously a very gifted luthier. :whoa:

Dan, that gitar is absolutely beautiful. I love the rope biding in the rosette.

Really nice. But I prefer the head with the binding.

Steve requested some shots of the 7-string. Here they are:

Also, Troy does have a website, MarcioGuitars.com, but it is currently under construction.
