I was up at Alembic last night, and this beautiful pair of bookmatched Cocobolo boards was waiting to be turned into a guitar. Both images at reasonable size.

Steve – a guy I used to work with – is in the process of building his own guitar and is documenting the process on his flickr stream. http://www.flickr.com/photos/steve0_f/

Yeah, I was trying to figure out broaching the "why don't I just write you a check and leave with these tonight?" question, but a customer has already fallen in love with it and is trying to figure out exactly where they'd like their guitar body cut from it (that'll be the front and back of one, and the front of another), and that's more than several hundred bucks worth of wood...
