I've been lurking here for quite sometime. Finally decided to do something about it.
I saw Jim had a pair of Songbirds in curly walnut with burst edges available. I'd landed on the Birds a while ago due to size limitations in my existing space. Simply hadn't pulled the trigger as the veneer choices were driving me crazy.. I've always loved walnut, but we have a bunch of elm furniture.. And hickory flooring.
Long story short, got the wife to agree that a different species would be nice if the build quality was good...
A couple of pics from Jim later, and my Birds are being finished up....
Can't wait to see and hear them!
