As Jeff has noted, this is exceptionally clean work. Working side by side with Joel for a year and a half now, I’ve never seen him take a shortcut. He spends just as much time making the interior details that no one will ever see, just as impeccably neat and clean as the outside of the guitar. He doesn’t skimp on materials either. Notice how he used a gorgeous set of flamed Maple for the inner sides. And he’s using Spanish Cedar for his shop-made linings for both high function and appearance.
Maybe a century from now, a future luthier will be restoring one of Joel’s guitars, and he or she will see these hidden details and be humbled and amazed by that level of detail. It’s cool that everyone watching this thread can see that meticulous work as it’s happening.
