Here is a list of all my instruments I am aware of.
If you know about something that is not here, let me know please.
If your name appears and you'd prefer it did not, say so!
My numbering sequence was started sometime well after I started building, therefore an unknown number of instruments
are not included in my current system.
Here's how to read this list:
Serial #: The last two digits are the year the instrument was started, as *****08 is the year I am writing this.
The third and fourth to last are the month the top was braced, so ***08** means braced in August.
The numbers before those 4 represent empirical sequence.
As I write I am working on my 167th guitar since I began this system, so it is #1670808.
Style: FT = Flat Top - ES = Eric Schoenberg - JB = Asymmetric - JZ = fully carved - # is body width, 0's mean 12 frets to the body.
