Default 2018 Stephen Kinnaird

Happy New Year to you all. I’m going to try something a little different this year, and we’ll just see how it works out. My goal is to post a picture from our shop each work day this year. It may be of a build process or a guitar, but hopefully you will stop by and find something interesting. Of course we may have a build thread or two, and please ask any questions, but I thought some might like a daily pictorial.

January 2: Macassar Ebony FS with cutaway



Thanks!

Thanks Dennis. Some days I may post more than one picture. I definitely have a lot more pics than would be needed for one a day. We’ll see how the days go.

We would let you Bob, but we’re afraid everyone would just get inured to the constant flow of celebrities, the endless hours of high level craftsmanship, and the many philosophical conversations about art and design if all someone had to do was click a button.

Actually, we work so far out in the boonies that only DSL comes out here and it can’t support the data needed to stream a cam.

Thanks bro. Which of those sets grabbed your eye, the Ebony or the Spanish Cedar? (I'm guessing the Ebony.) That's from Bob Singer, and the finished instrument will be traveling to his store, Your Perfect Guitar.
