Like the heart. I agree with Evan. Your skill level warrants higher grade wire.

I had to come back to see this again. Now, don't get mad, but on studying it, I found something to bring to your attention for future wraps. In the bail wraps, I see (when looking real hard) that you have a cut wire end in the front. Always try to have the cut ends facing the back. Just makes it neater looking.

This stone and this wrap certainly deserve silver. It's immensely salable, too. I can see a nice price on it in silver.

Just kidding, Tela!
Why would I get mad- I ask for input because I want to get better.

If you're talking about right in the middle of the bail wrap on the front I see it too.
I think what happened was that I made a hook to keep the wires together, wrapped it three times, bent the wires over for the bail and wrapped it some more.
I'm thinking maybe I should start that in the back?
If you have any other suggestions please let me know, I'm still learning...

I plan on getting some wire (soon hopefully) and redoing it.
I think I'll use the heart again I think it looks good with this particular cab.
Thank you again, ma'am, I always appreciate it.
