Blueburst....Meet Oceanburst.

The moment has arrived! Please forgive my photography skills, but it's a dreary day in Seattle and with my condo still in somewhat a remodel, I couldn't get the greatest of shots.....but here is my new FABULOUS acoustic, courtesy of PW. When I opened the case I couldn't believe it and I still can't believe it. This is the best-sounding acoustic I have ever played and a dream come true. When I decided to order an acoustic from Paul I couldn't really decide on a color...so I sent him a picture I took from the Ferry boat that Aitch took me on in Australia from the RickResource-inspired trip last summer. Looking out into the ocean on a clear blue day was picturesque enough, and I thought that would be a great color for a guitar. And Paul, being the genius that he is, made that picture into a reality on this guitar.
So you could say with absolute certainty that this guitar wouldn't have been possible without the fabulous RR folks! This is something that I'll treasure forever, and thanks a million to Paul!

Congratulations Alisha. Those are absolutely beautiful. You're mother and I are very proud. Those certainly brighten up a dreary Seattle day don't they?

Congrats, Alisha...... glad to be of assistance!
Certainly brightens up a dull, cool, wet day here in Melbourne, too. I blame the new Labour government!
Oh..... and Graham!

Cool !
And every one he does brings him one step closer to finishing off my next 4001.

I saw that it was mighty hot and sunny for the F1 race a couple weeks ago, so you are most likely correct, it is Graham's fault.

Very nice. I love it. I am not sure why everyone seems to know your mother but me and consequently I feel like I am missing out on something. The feeling will pass but the vison of your guitar will remain in my minds eye long after I leave this thread.
It's a work of art.

I've had my 730S LH for almost a year now and I still keep saying those same words to myself.
Congratulations Alisha.
