Hi all,
I finally got around to cleaning this guitar up for a photo shoot. This one was the last acoustic that I made several years ago. I know it’s kind of a plane Jane and I am clueless when it comes to photography but I plan to clean up some more of my guitars and maybe I’ll get better at taking pictures.
For the particulars, the back and sides are East Indian rosewood, the neck is mahogany, the fingerboard and head plate are ebony and the guitar is bound with abalone.

Thanks and the soundboard is Engelmann spruce.

It’s a nice bright day today.
I think I will go outside and outside and see if I can get some better pictures.

Nice Job! I love how the bottom of the fretboard mimics the curve of the cutaway...
