Till a week or so ago, I hadn't been able to work on this since last Feb. Have the box closed now and here are a few pics. Lutz is from Shane and the Cuban is from the Zootman. Red Spruce bracing from Arnold. Followed a tutorial by John Hall on inlaying the Ablam for the rosette and it worked nice. Got the idea for a NB version of a 00 from Todd who built one. I drew up my plans and Mario reviewed them and gave me feedback (made sure I didn't try anything stupid <smile>). Here are a few pics:

The soundboard (lots of silking):

Closeup of the rosette. How do you like the green strip in the outer ring?
