pretty weird... sorry, had to say it.

I was commenting on it last night, it's just wrong... like an in-bread hillbilly. Those two first cousins just shouldn'ta done it.

It takes a special player to do a 2 necked guitar. This one looks like both necks are meant played at the same time. I saw this kid from Oregon, Justin King with one, he had it down...

Congratulations Beal! I like it!!

Question: If the vibrations on the wood are what make the incredible sound, this one should have great sound because of all the wood surface to vibrate off of. What made you decide not to put soundhole(s) on the 2nd side, but instead forcing it to go over to the only soundhole? Will this increase the vibration and quality?

Just asking so I understand the reasoning behind it, definitely not questioning your judgement or authority on the subject!

Or put the soundhole in the middle, between the two sets of strings?

How do you work out the bracing for something like that? Best guess?
