Leave it to you clowns to obsess on a fucking sweatshirt when magic is happening in front of your eyes.

Kiz,

All joking aside, you are correct - its ALL magical in that shop and we all know it. We dissect every little detail of these photos to fully soak it in and then involuntarily smile - including the swag he's teasing us with there. ;) I'm just thrilled shitless any/all of this ever came to fruition and IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. Logoed gear just makes it even more real after years of seeing the cool "H" swag all over the place.

Sorry for that swag diversion - now back to your regularly scheduled Ultimate shop magic.

Speaking for myself, I have assurance from the Ultimate authority that the magic is coming my way (eventually), so I'm fairly relaxed about that. The swag, not so much.

Most glorious!!! The scraping of the binding has begun!

If anyone here has the Hamer DVD from around 2004, it shows Mike doing Abalone inlays around the edged of the guitar body.

Each one is inlayed like pieces of a puzzle.

It takes a lot of skill and patience to do that.

It also shows him carving/sculpting the maple tops.

Really amazing work.

What, does everyone but me understand what's going on in this photo?

As a side note, Mike, buddy, luthier to luthier - that fretboard binding is a little too tall.

Surfacing the side of the binding channel.

That's mahogany, not Korina. ;)

It's quite simple really: Mike is filing down the rubber mat. :rolleyes:
