Contoured
and comfortable all around (from back to front!).
The Polyurethane finish
provides a high gloss luster that protects out the
beauty of the
stained wood grain. High gloss finishes are nice, and while I
'm not a
big fan of them there are times when they just look so good.....well,
let's just say,
they make you want to take a bite out of the guitar! :)
The weight of this instrument
is well balanced by the combination of the
woods and the body design,
and
results
in an extremely comfortable guitar with super sustain and tone.
The MW2006 Design
Born From inspiration.......:
The concept of this guitar
was inspired by contemporary guitar concepts, and is
essentially the inspired
imagination of Alex's
desires,
along with my
interpretation of his drawings.
There's no doubt
that he had a brilliant idea, and
I was happy to be able to interpret
into this shapely beauty
Visit Alex
Miella's web site and listen to this master of the
guitar -- he is truely talented!

Alex's Review:
So the guitar is in my
hands, and it is a very jewel.
The sound is very smooth and resonant
and gives
more thickness to every note! I compare MW with my original
Steinberger GL and the sound is very warm... really!!! I like it very
very much!
Saturday I'll make the first gig with it... it will
be a nice surprise
for all my fellows musicians :-)
Soon I'll make a video and I'll play MW and I'll be proud to show it!
Next week I'll come back to school and I'll show it to all my students.
The only changes I made are:
1) Gold switch screws to replace chrome one (much better now)
2) Cream and Flat mounting rings humbucking
3) More low strings action
4) Adjusted pick up and poles height... now each string have the same
volume output.
The MW is a real masterpiece and I'm enjoying from the first time I
played it.
A presto

I am thrilled -- especially since I was
able to
produce what Alex was looking for and he is such a talented
player,
I wanted to be sure to live up to his
expectations.
Special thanks also to Peekamoose in NY city for their assistance with
fret work,
TT bridge tune up, and Plek work requested by Alex, and to
Tri Evans
for his neck
inlay work.
