Ron: Which one is the before? :)

Just kidding, an awesome new look.

Wow! Truly beautiful and unique.... What a cool transformation! The inlays and binding are a nice contrast to that dark burst. Very cool.... 8)

Wow, Ron!! Now that is a blueburst that really stuns. Fantastic transormation, the binding and FWI really stand out on this finish. Gorgeous...
