Chris, getting included with those two expert builders sure made my day.Thanks a million. Martin is not only a fine craftsman, he is also a great teacher, mentor and friend.
Dave Wheelhouse's artistry needs no big introduction.
His steel guitars are all masterpieces. The way he finishes his cabinets is the best I have ever seen.

Martin,
Be glad that Bent, and I don't live within walking distance of your place, you would never get anything done....
Over the top, as usual..love the colors you get...Bill

> Bill Ford ..... I agree about Bent . I'd be buggin himm all the time also .... he does great work! 
> Martin ..... that has to be the best looking steel that I've ever seen . The partial pad really adds by letting that beautiful wood / finish just scream .Your work always amazes me . 
Continued health & success to both Bent & Martin , and thanks for sharing .... {made my morning}

Martin, that is a wonderful looking guitar - except the pad - it looks like a ups parcel - I think it should be lower, longer and curved at the ends with the upolstery nicely rounded off. Just my humble opinion. Regards, brian

The only thing I see wrong with the pad is, my arms should be resting on it.

With the shorter pad, you show off more of that beautiful wood. Makes sense to wood lovers.
Where'd you get that idea Martin?
