For this build I'm doing a more traditional style rosette which is a first on my guitars. The design is a single ring and I've made the inner portion out of Amazon Rosewood to match the back & sides. I do a two step process which I find yields a clean result. Here I've made the solid ring and inlayed it into the top. Tomorrow I'll cut the inner and outer purfle channels, then glue the purfles in.
