Hi

Here's number 2 .. getting bit better each time

Got a really nice warm sound with thumpy bass which I think is maybe because I used heavier ebony bridge

Thanks for helping with the questions I asked ..there's always questions lol

Looks great, but only two pictures, and no details? That just ain't right!

Congratulations on number 2! That's a very classy looking guitar. Great job on matching up the grain lines of the sides at the end graft.

A beautiful guitar. #2!! The headstock design is great and the shaping on the back is nice and symmetrical. I struggle with that. What do you use to shape your neck?

Thank you. . I use rasp files on heel ..the rest including back strap shape is roughed out with a spoke shaver ..then lots of sanding

Nice looking guitar. I like the way that binding and purfling looks w the color scheme. Very nice.
