First and 2nd build!

Posted by Don Barnhill on May 15, 2012 at 2:01am in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion

Here is the start of the first & 2nd build. I used curly maple for the necks and fingerboards. The fingerboards are thick enough to resaw and get several FB out of them. The FB's are Big Leaf Western Maple and the necks are Eastern Hard Rock Maple. The Body is Spanish cedar. The paper and stamps are from the Republic of Dominica! :D

    Very handsome. Is that the start of a ukulele in the background?

      Thank you wormil! Yes it is. Macassar ebony. I was just sharpening up on my bending skills.

    Nice! These are going to be really sharp CBGs. ...And I'm a big fan of that Dominican paper, too!
