Hey Monsoon

Sadly, for a couple hundred years most Ebony was left to rot on the forest floor. Only a small percentage is solid black! But it all sounds and works great. Now that it is so seriously endangered, folks have finally gotten to see the breathtaking variegated stuff. It is very pretty!!! I do hope I am correct here! Paul

Paul, I think your story is correct about African Ebony, but the ebony John’s using here is probably from Indonesia and is always variegated in color (as far as I know). However your point stands for African Ebony.

But it looks gorgeous, and will no doubt make for a fantastic sounding guitar.

box is closed puddled/purfled and bound
a little sanding and rounding yet to be done.
 I wrote purfled and spell check changed to puddled and then the edit function wouldn't let me change the title bar. I just want everyone to know that I did not puddle this guitar.

I could tell you how to change that, but it’s funnier this way. It looks fabulous even if you did puddle it all up.

Now you guys tell me what I have to do to become one of the "in crowd". Looks like I'm the only one who does not know how to edit the title line

When you edit your post, at the bottom click go advanced. It will take you back to the original formatting window that you did your post in.

Fitting the neck
it does not always fall together this easily. A little flossing and mission accomplished.
 the fingerboard is not glued on yet.

I'm really loving the looks of this guitar--awesome!
In view of recent posts, I've taken to calling it the "Puddle Jumper"!
