Now that I have some time, time to revisit some other projects. Like my balsa guitar.



The neck and fretboard obviously is not balsa, mind you the junk 'mahogany' (as sold by the lumberyard, a weed lookalike) is not all that hard either. The fretboard is maple that I dyed with some dye I got from a shoe repair guy. Charged me more than I think it should have cost but it did do a nice job. I just did the rosette first with a pencil then a marker. Spent this afternoon shaving the neck. Need to put some binding on it next.


Darn, I forgot I was going to put the bridge on that six string uke. Maybe later, I want to see what this one will do.
