Thanks John. Why didn't I know that? Knew it about shell, even have the teflon. Never used it, but I should have figured it out. Ugh.

Another beauty, bro. Do you use a "sled" on the table saw to cut your purfs?
Or what do you use? Got a pic?

Thanks brother. Nothing so elaborate as a sled. I just use a miter guage (sort of a sled) and a depth stop against the fence.sorry, no pics.

Default Back From Tony

It is always such fun to get a box back from Tony the finishing wizard. Here is the BWE guitar that is going to Bob Singer.

It is looking more and more like the old 50’s BMW decorative scheme.

The neck and pick guard are at Larry Robinson’s shop getting some shell fish art encrusted. Can’t wait to get that back.





Here is a view of the BWE purfling



The “impossible Bend” cutaway


Straight Laskin Style arm bevel

Thanks Ryan. I guess these pics were a little Redundant but you know how it is when Tony sends something back.

I agree. it's hard to beat this stuff for dramatic looks and the tone is top notch too.
