More work for Bludotone and Santana

Doing another inlay for Santana's next Bludotone amp. Same design as the last one, but I'm building the head shell for the amp as well this time.

Santana's Amp

Just finished up this inlay. It was commissioned by Bludotone Amp Works for Carlos Santana's newest amp. Mr. Santana has several Bludotone amps. The inlay is nickel silver, ebony, and abalone.

This inlay went on a Treesong guitar, by Denver luthier Mike Boggess, and was built for Ramin Karimloo, star of Andrew Loyd Webber's Love Never Dies, which is the sequel to Phantom of the Opera. The guitar is quite beautiful itself, but I neglected to get a picture of it in its entirety.

Face

This is an inlay I recently did on the headstock of one of Dave Karnell's guitars. Dave is a friend of mine/former student/current TA at Red Rocks. Aside from being a wonderful person, he's also a wonderful guitar builder.

Fish Buckles

Fish related inlays have been very popular lately. These went out to Chicago, Texas, and Seattle, and one stayed here in Colorado.
