Glad everyone is enjoying the images as much as I am....
@ Michael Watts - you have no idea how many times I have looked at "The Virtuous Circle" - you truly do justice to a wonderful guitar and have the ability to effortlessly coax the inherent beauty of the tone from the Bashkin. I am inspired by your playing. @Billy Boy - thx, (I managed to secure one of the remaining awesome Maple sets from like yours from Tim for my Healdsburg 2013 McKnight SDG, after seeing your McKnight)

Although I initially was not going to have a soundport I changed my mind () and chose Michael's very elegant and graceful f-hole sound port which to me looks fantastic;

Not a big fan of sound ports, but that is quite elegant and is a very nice touch.

Agree it's a subtle touch of sound port addition.

I am going to continue to just post the images as I believe they speak far more eloquently of this build than I could....

Thx Sage
We are expecting it to be ready for finishing around end November. And then a bit of a break as finishing starts only in January as per my request.

Is that a jig to mark the fanned frets?
Beautiful build so far, lovely wood. Classy fret markers as well! |
