In reality, it’s never complete, there’s always something that needs to be done, but for the purposes of moving on to other guitars, guitar 901 is complete.  I’m still not fully satisfied with the finish, but I know what needs to be done to increase my satisfaction with the subsequent guitars.

There are miniscule creases in some areas of the finish, but only because I know they are there.  I’ve never played a resonator guitar before, so the sounds I produce tend toward the seasickness range, but I’m determined to learn.

All in all, it is a very nice guitar, and the sound is very fine.  In the hands of a real player, it should be sweet.
