Umauma said at 3:55 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: The guitar body was made by our good friend Tommy @ USA Guitars..He picked out the wood...(ALDER). He also made the neck last year.
LatentE said at 4:04 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Beautiful work. Meticulous attention to detail. A tabblo portrait of an artist making an artist's instrument.
Lifequest22 said at 4:20 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Wow--what a gorgeous guitar. And I really like the way you put the tabblo photos together. Such craftmanship. Great photos. I'll have to show this one to my son. I know he'll find it fasinating.
Floridamolle said at 4:26 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: A great tabblo, love the look of the guitar. Hope it has the sound, and is smooth to play too. Great job, both to build the beauty and to cover it
JuDeck said at 4:33 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: I loved how you took us through the stages of creating the guitar. I can see much devotion went into putting it all together, both the intrument and the tabblo. Here's to good playing.
Umauma said at 4:37 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: The Sound is equally as good as it looks, (if not better)..It was built to replilcate the 'early 60's era' sound, as in Rory Gallagher (see you tube) and Hendricks! Thanks for the lovely comments!
Chingyo said at 4:41 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Cool! I like the progression/process you captured.
TeresaAnn said at 4:50 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Very nice tabblo. Thanks for the tour. Beautiful guitar.
Tishfish said at 4:55 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: He really looks like he puts his whole heart and soul into his work. Great tabblo.

Alisande21 said at 5:42 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Possitively fasinating! Great sequence tabblo.
Experience said at 6:31 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: Bellissima storia fotografica, bellissimo tabblo. Complimenti.
GryphonHeart said at 6:38 p.m. on Aug 1, 2007: They are great Uma, surely they will sound great too. ;P
Wow, I didn't realised that guruji is so full on with his tatoos too. With inscription of words, looks like chants to me. Tibetian or something... ;p
Tigercub said at 6:59 a.m. on Aug 2, 2007: a very detailed report ))
Janer said at 11:59 a.m. on Aug 2, 2007: Cool, now maybe you can share some clips on youtube so we could also hear how it sounds. (:
Layla said at 12:38 p.m. on Aug 2, 2007: Very educational. Such craftmanship, what a labor of love. How long does it take to complete the work from start to finish?
AliDar said at 12:51 p.m. on Aug 2, 2007: Ha! I've been waiting to see this! Great job! I love seeing all the details, of Guruji working and of the Guitar! Can't wait to see and hear this baby in action on Youtube! :)
Umauma said at 7:22 p.m. on Aug 2, 2007: I'm so glad you all enjoyed this. Guruji tolerates me doing these things but I'm like a 'gnat' buzzing around him when he's trying to work.
Umauma said at 7:27 p.m. on Aug 2, 2007: As soon as I figure out how to 'do' YouTube, I'll put a video up of Guruji playing the guitar. The Canon PowerShot that I use has a great video feature.
DEE-Trow said at 11:32 a.m. on Aug 3, 2007: Wow, you can tell a lot of TLC went into this guitar. It is beautiful. Uma, thanks for sharing this with us!
Shampoo said at 4:22 p.m. on Aug 4, 2007: Ah, what patience it must take! Lovely chronicle of a wonderful art.
Hollyridger said at 7:08 p.m. on Aug 5, 2007: Great tabblo. Excellent choice of layout, too. I feel as if I can almost touch the wood!
Rataskaa said at 6:48 p.m. on Aug 25, 2007: Really neat!! Thank you for sharing this! Great layout too!
Jerii said at 9:25 p.m. on Oct 12, 2007: It is a lovely guitar! I looks so smooth and silky and rich - just the way I imagine it sounds. Thanks for pointing out this tabblo.
