Next commission up on the bench is going to be kil Next commission up on the bench is going to be killer! It's going to be an Italian Spruce/Bog Oak OMC with an arm bevel, trimmed with Tasmanian Blackwood decorative elements and Ebony bindings.

Check out this set of Bog Oak! It's got medullary ray figure, colour variation and it's also flamed, something I've never seen before.

Thanks @adamsonandlow 😃

Ok ok, so what's this award winning guitar that yo Ok ok, so what's this award winning guitar that you keep banging on about Oska, I hear the hordes all asking?!

So last Saturday, @tom_sands_guitars, @willmcnicol and a huge team of others put on a spectacular guitar show in Harrogate, UK - @stringbreak_uk 2, which I was lucky enough to be reinvited to, so a huge thank you to all of those who organised this. 

Amongst a plethora of things going on there, The Ken Parker Luthier's Luthier award - Best Luthier in Show was chosen. This was the best luthier built guitar, which was voted for by all of my fellow luthiers who were in attendance at this years show. 

I was pretty gobsmacked that I was awarded this prize, to say the least, as the calibre of makers and guitars from British and international luthiers at the show was spectacular. It is incredibly rewarding for me to gain such recognition from my peers, so I really treasure this award and it greatly boosts my confidence as a maker going forward.

An incredibly large thank you also needs to be made to all of the wonderful sponsors of the event - @ernieball, @lrbaggsofficial, @elixir_strings, @stringsandthingsltd and @stewmac_guitar. @stewmac_guitar very kindly provided the prize for this award as well. They are truly a great store for all your luthiery supplies and have helped me tremendously over the years with their incredible products and impeccable customer service.

Last, but not least, I must also congratulate Virgile from @blind_guitars who was the joint winner if this award with myself, whose guitars were absolutely stunning and you should definitely try them out if you ever get the chance to.

Oh and it's a Carpathian/Mahogany OM and it's ✨FOR SALE✨

Until next time...

R.I.P Ken Parker ♥️

Cheers, 

Oska
