0-12 Body is done!


Here she is! A little dry, no shellac so the color is less intense. It is completely in the white right now. The body is all done, the neck is roughed out and will be my focus for the next week. I hope to have this one in finish with in the next two weeks.
The bindings are Brazilian rosewood with a b/w/b side purflings and the top has a Koa/b/w/b purfling scheme.
This is also the first guitar that I have used what I call my petite binding scheme on, They are .180 tall, instead of the .250 that I have always used. Its a bit more difficult to execute because there is less room for error with the petite bindings.
But I do think its worth the extra effort, I think this will add a nice touch to my guitars.
