I've been on a break from guitar building for the last few months but I'm planning a gew builds this winter. I've started the first of them and wanted to share some of the progress. Some new twists on this one.
specs:
1.25" multi-piece maple core
.25" flame maple caps, double bound.
2mm flame maple sides...to cover the glue joints and end grain.
Maple neck/fretboard
The core is made up of 1.5" maple strips, from cutoffs, turned on edge, arranged and dry clamped to give the proper area for a blank.
They were then marked and glued up in steps.
