The client who I built this guitar for created a video slide show from the build photos and recorded an audio track of the 1st tune he wrote using it as the background music.

I can't get the youtube function to work today so here is a link to the video. Funny thing it worked yesterday by taking the s out of the https.

Nice, Fred!
That tree backround has been in back of some nice git-boxes.
I like the arm bevel you did on that one.

I bent the blackwood just like all other rosewoods, 300 deg with Fox style bender and single blanket. I bend everything at the same temperature but use Supersoft 2 on the harder to bend woods. After the bend is completed I turn the PID set point back to 240 deg and allow to cook for 10 minutes.
