Colin Hay records with his Asher acoustic

[Bill Asher]

As a luthier this will really make your day and remind you why you've spent so many countless hours in the shop.

It took quite a few years to deliver this guitar to Colin. He picked the finest Brazilian and 40 year old spruce that I had stashed away for when I started building acoustics. I had told Colin that day that even though I had been building electrics for the past 14 years I only had one acoustic under by belt and "was not ready to be cutting into that wood". It was about 8 years from the day he picked the wood when we started to build his custom slope shoulder cutaway. One year later it was done...

Take a moment to listen to this touching and beautiful song by Colin Hay.
