I'd like to thank Jimi Hendrix and Jimisen, both for bringing me this opportunity, a true honor in building this guitar.
I thank DMRACO and timezon3 for their great works too, such close votes reveal the high quality that all entrants possessed.
Also, thanks to everyone who took part in voting...
I'd like to thank everyone for taking the time and reading through my entries here.
It's been a great pleasure to share my work and It's nice to have my work noticed.

Thanks for lookin in! It really is a pleasure to be able to share this with people who understand the work that I've put in to this.
Hopefully, I'll have another chance to share another axe here again sometime in the near future :)
