Awesome......very cool. I built an Ashton myself and I love it.

Thanks Uncle John. That light is a round fixture hanging from the ceiling with 6 or so "candles" and bunches of grapes with a center spot on the table top. Recorded in the dining room. It was after midnight so I just sat the camera on one of the chairs at sorta a good enough angle to see the guitar then hit record.
I played the guitar last night on the street and I'm still committed to sell it, but it plays so nice. . .
Thanks Mike! I rather like my version of Mary Had A Little Lamb too. I sometimes segue into Frere Jacques. If I'm feeling real plucky, then I'll do the Alphabet song after Twinkle Twinkle. ;-).
Thanks Brickdust and wes!
I didn't make it out on Tuesday night because the weather turned really foul in the evening. Lots of wind and thunderstorms. Instead, I went to the basement and started this guitar. I finished it up around midnight Wednesday night and it's ready for sale. Hitting the streets of Saratoga Springs tonight!
I want more of these Ashton boxes. They are super easy to build on and have great volume for the size. This would be even louder and richer if I would have carved a recess in the neck under the sound board, but in the interest of time, I just jammed the stick through the box. It isn't even glued or screwed on. I'm really happy with this guitar.
