Just kidding.
It only took Collin 10 minutes to take that binding off, though! :lol:
Great Ramp In My Opinion.

No need for photoshop.

Is it a nightmare to do?

It takes, patience, binding, glue. Oh, and experience with Gordian Knots.
Bill did that one in 1972... It must have been quite a job...

Indeed... I never learned anything gregorian at the catholic school I went to :shock:

I don't like the F-hole binding... just doesn't look right, you know!

I snapped a pic of Collin's RoMo without the soundhole binding...

This is one he77 of a guitar. I never plugged it in, but it has one of the thinnest necks I've ever felt on a guitar, period. Collin has a holy grail, and I think it was my favorite guitar at SCARF.

The binding sure makes the f-hole more visible to the eye - compared to the state before I must say I'm undecided if it's an enhancement or not..
