Default Cocobolo set

I'm building a 14 fret 00-45 using some of the Cocobolo I purchased last year. I've been looking forward to building with this set.
It will be matched with a red spruce, 45 trim with curly maple binding.
It may be slow going.

Yes is does. Be sure to use the BBC code. Don’t bother using the download image icon the forum has. Just copy the code and paste it. Then preview the image. When you preview it you will see all the text you can delete from the BBC code. It will still be there before and after the image. Once you get what part you need to keep it gets easier.

ThAnks Mark. I figure it out eventually. Thanks for all the interest. Mercy if you enlarge the photo you'll see that the colors at least move 90 degrees through the thickness. Either way I'm expecting it to sound turn out really nice. I'll try to keep the progress updated.

Oh I don't know. I could see getting bored with the look after 20-30 years.
