Back to building

Good to be back to building.
My long overdue project is back on a track...much later than I originally thought (about three years past my projected target). Will have five more of my project completed within two weeks barring any unexpected delays--all they need is bridges, nuts and saddles and yes, strings.
After that, eight more partially completed guitars are destined to have their respective soundboards attached (no time scheduled as yet).
Stay tuned for updates.
Enjoy!

Just finished

New Indian rosewood with cedar soundboard. Satin finish.

Bubinga almost together

Hard to tell in the photo, but the finish looks like it's 1/2 deep. Love this wood

Fingerboards on!

Fingerboards on five more guitars. Glued onto rough necks. The necks are then tapered to the fingerboard using the indispensable Japanese saw rasp.
