Denvir #18
#18 went off to its new home last month. Ziricote, lutz spruce and ebony binding and head plate. My first cutaway, and also the first time I'd tried a wenge bridge and fretboard.
When I first stung it up, I was concerned that the wenge made for too brash a sound, but it mellowed quickly, and now the only way I can think to describe it is "lively." I'll definitely be using wenge again. And I finally found a headstock shape and logo that I'm happy with. Finally :-) Thanks for looking Steve denvirguitars.com Last edited by JSDenvir; 01-04-2017 at 11:36 AM. |

Looks beautiful--really like the woods, the shape, and your execution of the florentine cutaway.
Nice work! BTW--Is the soundhole slightly enlarged? Looks great either way, just curious...

Because I'm building (for the moment) with a true flat top, the bass is very present. The goal of opening up the sound hole just a bit is to get a little more high end. I'm a relatively new builder, but I'm slowly discovering that it's all about balance :-) Steve denvirguitars.com |

Thanks David, as always, and thanks John. Quite a ways from #2, the all-mahogany OM you were good enough to look at during the 2011 ASIA symposium :-)
