Phillip - Great work! You have raised the bar for the rest of us! Any chance of a sound file?


Thanks, Steve. I'm trying to do my best. :)

I'm afraid my skills as a player aren't up to par, but I might record something anyway. Should be entertaining anyway. :D

that bracing looks very clean. Probably a good part of what makes it sound so good.

Today I finished sanding the back and sides. Now I'm going to try using shellac to pore fill.

What kind of shellac? Did you do more than one coat? Thanks.

I used Zinsser shellac, and did multiple coats, level sanding in between. You're welcome. :)

Phillip, that guitar is a beauty!. I love the wood selections. The finish is outstanding. I'm on my #6, I hope my finish job comes even close to yours. Applause.... [clap] ..Jason
