The Schoenberg 000 is completely bound, and I will bring the Sexauer 0 up to the same point before I make the necks. I used more delicate purflings on the Schoenberg's back and sides than I usually do on my own guitars. This allowed me to miter the back purflings into the back strip, and posed a real challenge to my vision and tool skills, but it came out fine, I think:


A Martin 12 fret Long Scale 000 from the Golden Era would not have had side purflings at all, I believe, so there is quite a bit of license taken all around.
