Default Modified Lavrov L-00 with a different cutaway

Hey everyone I've been working on this guitar for a while and have been wanting to share a build thread but my progress has been pretty slow so I didn't want to bore anyone.

I am now at the finishing stages and wanted to share some pictures.

Top is a bear claw Sitka Spruce.
Back and sides are Imbuya.
Neck is Peruvian walnut, Lacewood, Bolivian Rosewood
Bindings are Lacewood.
Rosette and radial purflings out of Bolivian rosewood.
Bridge is Cocobolo.
Fretboard is Bolivian Rosewood



It will feature a Doolin style adjustable neck and pinless bridge. Enjoy and leave your thoughts!

Really dig the cutaway and the matching shape of the headstock and end of fretboard! Looking really great!

Very interesting cutaway - I like it - and I like how the fingerboard extension seems to mimic it. Your wood selection seems very harmonious in the photos - I can't wait to see it under finish. Beautiful work!

Nemoman thanks! I sometimes wonder how many people notice those smallish details

SJ VanSandt thanks, that's what I was shooting for. Harmony in color and shape. It looks great when wiped with some naphtha!

David Wren, thanks! I always enjoy watching your builds. You inspire me
