Default 2018 Stephen Kinnaird Part 3

Here is a link to part 2 of this thread: https://www.acousticguitarforum.com/...d.php?t=505198



June 21: Summer Solstice

Part 3 of this thread already? Ok. I guess we’ll keep on going. I’ll post a pic that relates to the rosette that ended Part 2 of this thread.

Bending a 1/16” thick piece of high curl mahogany for the outer rings of a rosette.

Thank you gentlemen. That’s a pretty nice collection of compliments! We’ve always loved Walnut. It doesn’t hurt how pretty it can be either.

Dan, I’m going to have to come to Tasmania so you can teach me some of the native language. I want to be able to so emphatically share good thoughts too!

Steve, I’ve found myself just staring at your guitar on the bench. It’s coming soon and it blows me away like this one does.

I have to say I usually like smaller sized neck laminations but this really looks beautiful. What is the wood bordering the walnut.

To properly convey what I am about to say.....you must imagine it to sound as if Porky Pig were saying it:

Well...that's some mighty fine looking Walnut that you've got there, Ryan...

Haha! Thanks Joel for the Porky Pig reference. I remember watching plenty of the Looney Tunes’ Merrie Melodies. I know this Walnut has some merry melodies in there too.
