Beautiful!
 
Bee-uuu-tee-ful! Is that purple heart I see between the body wings and neck? Sure looks like it from the 2nd pic from the top.

That would be the first Smith I've ever seen with purpleheart in it. I thought Ken had discontinued the use of purpleheart, but maybe he had enough laying around to do this piece?

Yes, I don't offer PH but I do have a small bit of it in the shop that is left over from many years ago. I was asked by my Dist. in Japan/Asia to use it for a 'price' as it is extra work to use it as body laminates.

The Working Definition of "Pron"

Pron - a derivative of the word "pronography," used exclusively to describe the finished product, pictures and/or other images of the fine artistry produced by one Ken Smith of Philadelphia.

Ex.: My living room has been overtaken with bass amplifiers, cabinets and my husband's shameless indulgence of pron!!!! :D

Tim Bishop 05-20-2009 12:22 PM

Uh Oh....
