Karin's box fiddle

Posted by Dave Lynas on June 17, 2015 at 7:56pm

Martin guitar factory reject top. I sanded out the cutouts with my belt sander. Ebony fingerboard and tailpiece. Cedar home made bridge. Cedar back and sides as well as the neck and tail blocks. The shoulder is mahogany.

Thanks Jim. I got the Spruce tops off ebay as a "lot". 18 dreadnot half tops. I've used many of them and love how they sound. They are routed for inlay rosettes. They are just the right width for fiddles. I got lucky this time.

Excellent! Where do you find those Martin reject tops?
