Army reunions can be full of surprises, as we can see… 
Looks beautiful, I bet it sounds amazing, congrats on your new ‘family member’ (a thoughtful lady, your wife) 
Damn; I can imagine that was hard to resist

Wow! What a beauty! She is gorgeous! My wife is convinced that I enjoy caressing my guitars more than anything (or anybody) else! When I try to explain that I love her the most… but that I love the guitars so much… but in a different way… she jokingly tells me to go play with my ‘harem’!!! 
So… I do!!!
Enjoy yourself with your newest ‘girl’!!!

When does it stop? I’d say, never…
It’s a beautiful looking guitar anyway, so no harm done.
I bet you can’t wait for the next reunion, can you?

What a beautiful guitar!
As I remember from when I lived in Newcastle, a lot worse things can happen after a visit to the pub … especially in Bigg Market on a Friday night !!!

Getting a bit risque there Tod. You’re going to get this forum an “R” rating with talk like that. We don’t want the morality policy poking around here!

Looks like the sides are from “the Tree”. A famous quilted maogany log from South America that yeilded almost a million board feet of this beautiful lumber. That is a prize. Hope it sounds as good as it looks. Enjoy.

Well, I thought “caressing” was more PG than R rated… since I do more fingerstyle than anything else, I could have said F…. 
Uh… never mind!!!

It just occured to me… the floral print and the picture of a somewhat older man are cunningly woven into the finish…
