Neck block update
|
I'm not smart enough to understand any of these photos....! LOL;) ps, I LOVE my LeGeyt guitar!!!
|
I'm following this closely ... as I've had a guitar like this in mind for quite some time. Looking good ...
|
Burton earns some F's on this one.
Flowing, form following function, fearless, finesse, and freaking fantastic, come to mind! |
Very cool Matthew (and Burton)...:up:

This luthier thing is easy. Simply manipulate wood using sheer will, The Force, and a little artistry. ;)

The carbon fiber reinforcement and the compound curves. I'm really looking forward to seeing this one coming along. Burton is a true master. |
Additionally; any luthiers in the group want to hazard a guess as to how this (the concave/compound curve on the upper bout/neck) was done on the original Martin renaissance guitar? I suppose a ton of experience, patience, practice, etc.

Ha ha, well I am not a guitar genius, but so far non of those pieces look like a guitar to me yet!!!!! I know eventually I will recognize something...just the blocks are way cool.
|
Way cool neck block--a piece of art in and of itself.
It looks like some sort of manta ray spaceship prototype! |
That's several photos of the neck block being constructed, and all the photos are of the bottom. Looks like a mortise and tenion neck joint, and I don't understand the CF reinforcement.
