Hi Max that set came from uncle Bob at RC, Pete delivered it to me at the gathering at John Hall's shop. It moved to the head of the pile real quick.

As of now I am building it to be my guitar, though I am sure I would get over giving it up. I will start the rosette and brace the top for it this week.

If it came from the Zootman, it is! His stuff is dried right, every time.

Fred,

The coco set looks great as does the neck lamination. What are you planning on binding the coco with?

Since the Coco is so busy looking I am leaning towards Ebony, though I have some much darker straighter grain Coco that might work with it. As always I will decide at the last minute after thinking about it way too much.

Looks like you have enough to keep you busy for awhile Fred. That's some real nice coco for sure. I also like the tenon jig.
