working on the neck
Fred is currently working on 3 guitars, including my baritone and sent me some progress pictures of his work on the neck...later pictures were taken while making the adjustment for the tuners before finish stage. Heel cap and signature inlay on the headstock still to be done.
  Think my left hand will have more then enough to play with, with this 28' scale...

Looking good, Fred! Nice when the lacquer is finally going down. Finally warm enough this coming week that I can do the same.

Jean-Francois will be happy to know the guitar now resides in a Tweed case, I did a case swap with the Cocobolo Fan fret.

Congrats, JF.
If your schedule permits, you are welcome to drop by on your way back from Windsor to show off this beauty. We can have a beer, take photos of your new guitar, etc.
