As others have said already, you need a higher profile (if not for your own, but everybody else's sake), your work is stunning.

Thanks for the compliments. I appreciate it.
Here are some pics of the back.
This build was based around using a piece of 100+ year old ultra tight grain Redwood from my attic for the neck through. I also used the same redwood for the chambered body core. The top is spalted Brazilian Rosewood, Moon Ebony fretboard, Purple Heart back. I ended up painting all the Redwood black & it really made the color pop on all the other woods.
This is one of my 'Belly Backs'. I join the body wings to the neck through w/ a 5 degree angle so it wraps around your belly if you have one.
Then I have to make a few tricky cuts to get the book matched top to join to center. All in all, it's worth the extra work because these 'Belly Backs' are definitely comfortable & very unique.

I just read about the most expensive Hendrix guitar ever sold and had to share. It’s this 1968 Fender Stratocaster that Hendrix famously used during his 1969 tour. The guitar’s been in the spotlight for years, but it recently sold for a staggering amount—somewhere around $2 million!
This Strat is seriously iconic. It’s the same one he used for some of his most legendary performances, and it’s got all the battle scars to prove it. The story behind it and the fact that it’s Hendrix’s personal gear really make it priceless in a way that’s hard to put into words. I dream about playing this guitar for at least 5 minutes.

link some information and pictures.
 
Recently sold my PRS SE HBII Blk/Gld and have this one on loan from a friend. It's a Parker Nitefly Mojo(?) because of the mahogany gloss finish. I consider this guitar to be one of the most avant grade futuristic types. Although Ken Parker no longer makes these, there are a number of them in public that command good prices because of their rarity.

The force is strong with this one. Will need to put the guitar through its paces before rendering a purchase decision or not.
