mod edit: your post is a perfect example of what the PM system is for, next time use it instead of bumping a thread

Koa just looks beautiful - no wonder the best pieces are rare and expensive. I think it'll warm up the walnut enough to make rather balanced :) Personally I prefer gold hardware on these warm looking tops - but I think the darker streaks in your koa makes a good match for black hardware.

I'll patiently await your NGD, even if I actually prefer the build threads :)

Can't wait til it's in my hands. Joe (pictured) and Scott at acacia guitars have made me a wonderful instrument for me! In under a month!

Scott and joe said they'd been demoing pickup placement in their prototypes and this was a happy medium between mid body and too close to the bridge shrillness. He sent us a play through video and they sounded sick as fuck.
