Got the binding, purfling, arm bevel and rib rest just about done on the Ebony guitar. I'm going to carry this one through to the end and then return to the myrtle guitar.

The purfling is basswood, the same as the kumiko and matches the Adirondack spruce top really well. I'm keeping it simple as this guitar is going to have a snakewood bridge, fingerboard, and end wedge, and I don't want it to be too busy.

Here is the rib rest:

I've been making arm rests smaller than I used to, I find you don't really need much and the less it encroaches on the soundboard the better (of course)
