Yesterday I did get the binding onto the Dream Series JB-15, and today I installed the graft and cut the dovetail cavity. Tomorrow I expect to get pretty far with the neck as I haven't really been much for celebrating any President's Day since they melded George's and Abe's days.
Any guitar looks better when the plates are properly framed, and this one s no exception. I'm not sure I mentioned it, this guitar is bound with extremely well quartered Jatoba, and aside from being a nicely contrasting color and the toughest wood I have ever worked (perfect for binding), it will pop seriously when the finish goes on; the closer one gets, the better it will look.
