Wow, this one looks great.  Is the top of the peghead coco bolo as well? I can't quite tell on my monitor.

You're right, Justin, the front veneer is Coco Bolo to match the body.

The Maple on the back is really nice!  The finished guitar should be great!

Wow, I like the Bolo, no, the Maple, no wait, the Bolo, damn, the maple, hey what's the big idea the back as nice as the front? Very funny wise guy. How are you going to decide which side up when she is on display? Not so funny now huh?
 
Very nice.

  Which turned out great. I love how James selected the pieces - if you trace the path of the knot, there's a nice "flow" to the patterns.
