Default End Graft

Now that the Brazilian Rosewood body has had it’s binding and purfling channels routed, it is time to route and install an end graft. Here’s Mark’s routing jig for the end graft. That’s a 1978 Porter Cable router which Mark has changed out the bearings on 6 times!



The Bristlecone’s end graft is contrasting Macassar Ebony with curly Koa purflings to match the binding design.
