Post subject: | Goodman birdseye koa triple O |
Here's some pictures of the last triple O guitar I built. The back and sides and head veneers were a made from a very unusually figured (birdseye?) Koa I cut from a board I aquired. The top is Master grade Adirondack red spruce,ebony binding,pyramid bridge,fretboard,estate ivory nut and saddle,Honduran mahogany neck,Schaller "open back machines, nitro finish. It has a bolt on neck with a glued "tongue" It sounds "nice" |

Brad, as usual, very sweet. A most interesting piece of Koa. I bet that was exciting to find. I hear ya about the "nice" sound. Short and to the point. Good for you! Steve |

Thanks for the compliments. Steve, I gave up trying to describe sound,it's like trying to describe the taste of wine!(fruity with woody overtones? Dry and nutty?) |

Brad, Very nice job! ![]() I really like the rosette. I guess still being new I never thought of stacking BWB purfling for a more dynamic look. Philip |

Stunning Brad and I love the finish too. I also really like the head stock design/shape - it is indicative of superb quality in my mind. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
