Post subject: | 4 and 5 coming along nicely |
I have these two scheduled to be finished just before christmas. I was ify about taking on the commission of these guitars as i am soooo much an amateur. But i do have quite a bit of experience in woodworking and commisions of other items mainly traditional archery equipment. I was encouraged by the last guitar i made still being played daily and sounding better and better (blk walnut body) and the customer happy as a clam. Anyway i would like to thank all of you pro's (you know who you are) for posting your work and answering questions. All i did for my first was read a book. My later creations were/ are so much better because of this forum. Mostly i lurk and read past posts, but the result is the same. Here are a few pics of what i have going now. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Keep up the good work. Who doesn't love a blond and redhead at the same time. ![]() |

Tony, Nice guitars. I don't know if it's me or the camera angle, but the fingerboard on the blond looks like it's running towards the bass side of things. My mentor would say that it looks like it needs an "attitude" adjustment. But like I said, could just be where the pic was taken from. Phil |
