New Member of the Matt Guitar Family!

This morning marks the birth of the newest member of the Matt Guitar Family, this one with Swedish Heritage! Since I was not able to fit a guitar into my suitcase to bring to Sweden, I decided to order a kit from Carvin that had all the parts needed to construct your own guitar. Everything is custom picked from shape to neck size to inlays, colors, pickups etc. So the guitar finally arrived Thursday after much back and forth with the postman and the nights since have been occupied by applying coats of finish. Finally Sunday the last bit of wiring, piecing together, and tickering was completed! I am still trying to think of a good name for it, so any ideas you may have are welcome to be submitted! From here, I'd just let some pictures take you through the journey in a piece I'm calling "Me and My Guitar!"

Mattie-J,
Although you know I am not as supportive of your electric guitar work as I am acoustic, I do feel an obligation to contribute to the "name pool". Thus far I contribute:

SwedeTunes
Woodie
MattMaster
Sven-gali-guitar

As I am going out with D&L tonight (new Duffer's)to see Leaving Cash II, I'm sure a little "loud mouth soup" will encourage the naming process.
