WOW, David you really did a nice job on that Williams. I liked it orange, but now it's even betta! The Rudolph's would be proud of you. _________________ Clinesmith consoles D-8/6 5 pedal, D-8 3 pedal & A25 Frypan, Pettingill Teardrop, & P8 Deluxe. |

Hey David that looks great. I am puzzled by one thing though. It appears as though this guitar had 2 rows of binding on the front apron before and now it does not. Was that just in the original finish and not actual binding? |

That binding was just a decal. The new Williams logo is vinyl lettering made at a sign shop which I got from Williams, It would be much nicer if they had an actual decal in my opinion. |

Would anyone know where the decal binding might be purchased?

Beautiful....what an improvement! I really like the lack of inlay...it gives the Williams a sort-of "Bigsby-esque" flavor. |

WOW!
Thats what I would call a keeper.
Most inlay used by steel builders (rope style, etc.) comes from Constantine's. It is not a decal but a thin, strip, wood inlay. The body of the guitar has to be routed slightly for the inlay to fit flush.
This guitar looks fabulous without any inlay...very clean looking. |
