    Default Mowry GOM Pictures in Process

    Andrew has started the walnut GOM. Here are some pictures he sent me. In the letter he stated that he will be starting to carve the top and back soon and will get more pictures to me.

    Wanted to show you how Andrew adapted his art deco headstock for my GOM that he is making. Way to go Andrew.

    Steve, Funny, I did not notice the backround. I was too enamered by what Andrew came up with. While the idea was mine, his execution went far beyond my idea.

    Cant wait to see the finished product, looks great!

    Andrew built a really cool GOM with a single cutaway the looked like a small Gibson ES-175 that has always stuck in my mind.

    Man that walnut is stunning. I'd sure love to test drive one of Andrews GOMs... maybe ABC it with a Fletcher Brock and an Old Wave. Someone needs to host a GOM gathering.
