I’ve got the soundboard all done up. This guitar will be put on the backburner while I start on my niece’s guitar.
Here are some pics.
I decided to make the rosette out of leftover wood from my back and sides. The waterfall bubinga veneer was way prettier, but its veneer and doesn’t allow for any mistakes because it’s so thin. That problem with using leftover wood is that you need to construct the rosette first and then cut it.
I did some work on #3. Not much, but here are some pictures. The back is braced and the top is joined.
I constructed a binding jig in the last couple weeks. I am somewhat pleased with it. It will work for now. The bearing mechanism doesnt work super-well. I think think its because i have manually bend sides and they are kind of jagged. Its hard to explain, but it works ok.
Pics.
Here are some updates from over the weekend. I got a TON of work done on #2. This guitar is moving along MUCH much faster than the first. I suppose that is to be expected.
Loads of pictures ->
