*** Please note: the Oil & Vinegar Iris and Alma guitars pictured here were special presentation models made for my parents (the daughter and son of Iris and Alma!).  As such, they were made with special contrasting wood pickguards and 12th fret block inlays featuring my grandmothers' engraved signatures.  Your Oil & Vinegar guitar or bass will have a black plastic pickguard and glow-in-the-dark fretboard dots (described below).  Otherwise, every other glorious detail you see here is standard.
