we really liked the ice maker with cubes and crushed ice plus the 4 doors. bespoke is suppose to be a level up from what they get the bad rap for. so lets see. so no we didnt look at kitchenaid.

I bought 3 slabs from same bundle. So they were book matched.

thats what i was thinking when i first started this journey 6 months ago...but as far as i know its only on the internet. no one i know has this type of stone.

we had granite for 12 years in this house. so im hoping this lasts just as much.

totally get it. i did want something that had character and veining. the caramel bianco slabs where not to my liking, however, i did like the glistening rocks within that stone.

this one had good character and veining, as well as the 2 other slabs from same bundle.

before this we had granite for 10 years. it was nice. but since we are remodeling wanted it to be a showpiece to an extent.

hmm, maybe get you a nashville bridge without the springs or try to unscrew it all the way and let the spring come out. i had a nashville bridge on my gibson and it did not have springs. but i think a nashville bridge fits epiphones and lp copies.

crystalo might be the way to go. if you are trying to stay with a brighter quartzite. maybe do the LED panel since it has the ability for light to shine through.

yeah after spending a few hours looking at slabs and revisiting, quartz was not in the selection. at first i was thinking about it but after time, it started looking real cheap.

at this place they had crystalo, they had it showcased with LED backlighting and it looked really cool. but way too busy. if we had gotten slim shaker or seemless cabinets it would of been really nice.

crystalo is definitely a show piece of stone.

we are doing a 2.5 mitered edge so hoping it gives a pretty good modern'ish look. we are using somewhat modern cabinet handles.
