Joel Zoss kept a small special amulet with him at all times. It was a pewter running rabbit. He asked me to inlay a pearl replica of it at the 12th fret of his Cumpiano wedge cutaway.

A Hawaiian curly Koa wedge cutaway classic guitar. The compound cutaway is an especial challenge to make, but affords a smooth transition from heel to cutaway.

Same as above. Those are graphite/stainless steel tuning machines with ebony knobs made by luthier/engineer John Gilbert
