Haha thanks Robert, u know Ive got a couple guitars I can loan u if u want to use one in your pic
BTW how do u like the New forest brush, are the tips pretty soft compared to the Thaters, and how is the backbone, been thinking on popping on one
Also Im glad to see Ur in the Vintage Guerlain family, Habit Rouge is pretty awesome stuff isnt it.

Thanks Matt...but, I think using an instrument in an SOTD presumes that one knows how to use it...and in the case of the guitar, I can barely make out one end from the other
NF brushes are great...not in the same league of the Shavemacs or Thaters, but good nonetheless. The tips of the Shavemac/Thaters are much much nicer and softer, IMO. But, for the money, you can't beat the NF. Great brush for a great price = great value.
HR is very very nice. I can still smell the vintage smell from the box it came in

Thanked: 3987/8 Jungmeister Wacker razor with blonde horn scales
28mm Thather silvertip brush
Ambrose Spanish leather strop + Dovo XL Russian leather
Proraso White SS
Thayers' Superhazel
Proraso green Balm
Eucerin Moisturizer
Well after my first shave with the wacker, I thought I would take it back to the stone for a little refinement...The shave this morning was pretty decent but not as good as the first one. I blame it partly on the fact that the gf was in a hurry to leave this morning so I did not get a chance to give the razor a proper stropping session.
