BUSY day!!

I love the last week of term. the kids are all watching a DVD in the other room so I have loads of time to get to work on some mandos!!

first up, the top linings on the A4..

once this is dry it's ready for the cedar top.



and a dread shaped mando. the sides bent into moulds. this mould made from a pic of a 1960s Gibson Dove guitar.



the two halves joined......



Neck & tail blocks glued in place



And linings on one side.



Tomorrow I'm HOPING to get the rosette started on the A4, and the back braced & glued onto the mini dread
