New project starting

It's been a while…

I just got an exciting box delivered today. Sami is going to get a new guitar, a 12 fret, short scale 000. Top is redwood with adirondack bracing, and back and sides figured sapele. It was the first time I used LMII's Kit Wizard. The materials are of high quality, the plates are thicknessed and even joined and the ebony fingerboard already slotted, so it's going to be a pretty fast build, I hope. The first glue seam is already laid down, as I glued the back center seam reinforcement in place. Here we GO!!

This kit's got it all. Just add tuners and strings. And a bit of glue here and there...
A neat trick to seat the center seam properly: masking tape borders.
When the masking tape is removed, so are the glue spills as well

Moi,

jossakin aikaisemmassa tekstissä mainitsin tuotteen jolla saa ebonin kiiltämään. Mikähän se on kun linkki ei enää toiminut..

Hei! Luultavasti viittasin stewmacin sivulta löytyviin 3M -polishing papereihin.
