The Hartung guitars look like great instruments. The craftsmanship looks top notch. Your redwood top is an amzing piece of wood and it compliments the style and look of the Embrace model very well. The fingerboard looks killer also. Please keep us posted. I am eager to see the progress on this. Thanks for posting.
