This turned out to be one beautiful guitar.
This is an unusual guitar I made for a great player. We have all seen Kevin Eubanks play his electric on the Tonight Show but he is also a great acoustic guitarist.
Kevin contacted me in 2005 about building an acoustic with a neck that allows playing access to the last fret on the fingerboard. To achieve this configuration, the neck extends into the body, and the sides fit into slots cut in the side of the neck. Classical guitars use this type of construction.
He asked for some special inlay and that his initials be inlayed on the guitar.
Here is a video clip of Kevin playing some very nice original music on this guitar:
