Hey BD, I opened this post and stepped away for a minute while the pictures downloaded. I happened to glance back at the monitor and thought, Huh--someone's painted the back of an LP bright blue and given it a creamy white figured top. That doesn't look half bad.
Then I came back to the real world and realized what I was looking at. The kudos go to your wife this time. She did a wonderful job on that LP. I seem to remember that she has skills in inlaying as well. You get points for landing her though!
Very nice on all counts, man, you've certainly got two classy instruments nearly ready to play.
