Looks great.
I used that same string gauge when I was in high school (added a 009 to a 038 set), then went to 009-042. Now it's 009-046.

Love the translucent color. Did you do the finishing?

Nope, I didn’t do the finishing, Warmoth did. Apparently I must have gotten it before Warmoth discontinued that color.
