    The Amalgimated Brain Trust

    Thread Starter: Bruce Wrenn

    Acoustic guitar - Build #2

    Thread Starter: David Falkner

    I've talked about this several times and I'm finally back to building #2! When I built my first guitar I didn't have the CNC, actually built the CNC while I was finishing that guitar so the only job I did on the CNC for that guitar was a little bit of the bridge. I began build #2 while I was...
