That's some beautiful guitar ya got there, mate.
Does it play as fine as it looks?
My Suhr should be here within a week, so this really has me drooling (though I doubt the cosmetics on mine will be as dramatic as yours).

Oscar,
Congratulations on your birthday and birthday present! It looks beautiful. When I was living in New York City in the 70's, I remember John Suhr was working in Rudys Music on 48th street. He was the repair guy and was building custom guitars from Schecter and various other parts.

Oscar, first of all, congratulations on your birthday! Secondly, cool guitar. Anderson and Suhr-my favorite two guitars! I was wondering who would scoop that guitar up from Ed at Tonemerchants as it's definitely a beauty.

That's burl maple, isn't it? Don't see that too often. Melancon uses it fairly regularly. How does it sound?
