Default Binding and Trim

Here is a sequence showing routing the binding channels, and the installation of the binding, purfling and tail graft. The maple 000-12 is being bound in Claro Walnut, the Ovangkol 00-14 in EIR.

Here the FB is bound and glued to the neck, the truss rods installed and the headplate glued up.

Default Inlays

A brief update...

I had debated about various inlays for the fretboard...5-7-9 diamonds, hummingbirds, willow leaves, logo orientation on the headplate.

Final Decision: 12th fret hummingbirds on the maple guitar, no inlays on the ovangkol guitar, both logos laid out straight.

As usual, Larry did a nice job. Those little birds were a pain...three pieces being the beak, the rear wing and the main body.
