I installed the back bindings (rosewood) on my guitar using CA, and it
appeared to have worked out. I applied the glue to the joint between
the back and binding and let it wick in. Do I also need to apply glue
to the joint between the side and the binding?

thanks for any help!
Mike

I have used ca for bindings for the last 10 years and I always do both seams.
Be very careful that you don't use too much as it will run inside. Dont ask me how I know... ;)

Thanks Lance! I'll do both seams. Thanks for giving me the benefit of your experience - I had read a number of descriptions of the process, but none of them stated exactly where to apply the glue,
Mike
