I guess I should not think of "mistakes" as such, rather "opportunities to learn" ![]() I have several guitars in progress as I am trying to repeat each step along the way multiple times so the process is engrained in my head. On this one guitar, what I am calling a Jumbo PS (My take on the Larson's Prairie State- shape, not with the lam bracing tho), I am building the top flat (using lutz), but incorporating a 1/8" ramp sanded into the sides from the middle of soundhole to the neck block (creating 3 degree neck angle, but keeps the fingerboard level over the body). Anyway, I am hoping my learning opportunities are not TOO frequent ![]() Glenn |
