The cherry on top and the LAST hurrah.

Never say “last”!

It is Vinny's last guitar until his next last guitar.

Mark is using some really nice looking rock maple for the neck. It will look sweet with the quilt. Note how tight the spruce grain is.
As Jimmy D’Aquisto used to say : it’s going to be a whopper :
Mark makes building your guitar a very fun ride.
He is a treasure to the archtop world. Let’s hope we can squeeze another 10 years out of him.

.......I just felt that particular use of ' last ' had a fordboding air to it.....
Or maybe ' definitive ', as in " That's all there is, there ain't gonna be no mo'. "
: )

I am so glad my bro is going to be able to share the excitement of his very own Cameo with us.
And how fitting, his last guitar will be his best and it is called, the Cameo..
Bro, nobody deserves this more than you. You've been such a great guy to so many and an amazing friend to me personally.
This is going to be a treat. I might have to get my dentists number handy, and make myself some popcorn!
Enjoy Bro. You are the best.

Pretty sure I've got a Cameo in that batch as well, mine will be Blueburst....

Congratulations Vinny! I can’t wait to see it completed!

Nice! I can feel a tickle in my retirement savings ... may have to see about getting on Campellone's waiting list.
LOL

Just sit back and relax.
Mark are you cutting two necks out of that block, or one?
I’m assuming two.

To be pedantic, Vinnie, last and latest are not synonyms.
