Default Benjamin Paldacci: The 2017 Woodstock Invitational Showcase Builts

Hi everyone!

I am happy to be a new AGF support member, the team make a great work here, and they deserve to be support.

So, I start a new thread about guitars I will build for the Cremona & Woodstock 2017 show.

- OO-12 Higuerilla & Lutz Spruce
- OM Higuerilla & Carpathian Spruce

Here are some pics, I hope you will like them, All the Best

Ben

The OO-12 is ready to be closed,
the top is braced. Pics of the OM soon,
but they are siblings so, it won't be really different

Bonjour Ben

Vous avez parcouru un long chemin depuis que j'étais dans votre magasin il y a quatre ans.

I can clearly see the maturity in your work.

I would love to return and play one of these 12 fret beauties.

I admire your determination.

Quite true, it seems a shame to stick a front on it.

Hey Daniel, it was pretty cool! When they are complete, you are welcome at the workshop anytime, I'll let you know!

J'espère que tout va bien pour toi, à bientôt!

OO#11 & OM#12 bodies are done, final sanding. Let's complete the necks, and they will be ready to fly to Vancouver Guitar Finishing for a PU UV finish
