Default Stringed up in Bellingham

Rumors of being stringed up are apparently true....

A few close ups courtesy of Kent. The custom ebony buttons and truss rod cover tie together nicely and the flamed catalpa inset logo in the Craftsman Style look great.eliminating the nuts around the Schertler posts is a nice touch.



The raised flamed catalpa rosette pays tribute to the clean joinery of the movement. The end of the raised fingerboard is reiterated by Kent's signature bridge. Being ebony, it ties with the TR cover and tuner buttons.



This shot shows the beautiful Engelmann top, the sapele bound wenge body and the low gloss wood finish that features the textures and grains of the woods.
