Actually, they are under way, but the Artisan show put this project on hold. But work has resumed, so stay tuned.
And thanks for your interest, and patience!

Thanks for the reply Steve. I will patiently watch and wait for the completion of this magnificent work of art.

I’m sure my brother fears this baby has died in committee. However, work progresses!
We decided to do a specific head for this guitar, something a bit more modern. This Cocobolo veneer semi-determined the shape:

And with a swipe of shellac:

I really like that shape, it really has beautiful lines in it with the ogee on the sides heading to the higher curves of the peak.

I like the new name, almost as much as the headstock. Way to use the natural lines of the wood!!!

Lovely

Thanks Kevin! The name might need some work: I think it might need more syllables?
