It's a beaut, and well made - the sad reality is that a lot of people won't go near that price range without a reputable brand on the headstock for resale purposes unless they keeps it for good. I'd love that, but knowing me, I'd have it on the chopping block within a year, and struggling to sell it. It sucks because you can see the amount of work that's gone into it.

Bro, sorry if I'm out of line here - it looks awesome but wouldn't it look better/more professional if you cut the excess strings off for the listing photo?

Everything about the guitar suggests craftsmanship and an eye for detail but then leaving the strings sort of says - "I couldn't be bothered".

Also you should have more than one photo up on the listing. Show off your good work!
