OM, the rest of the strings on.
it starts to look like something!!
the bridge is heavy because it will have a piezo inside it, so once I have that sorted I'll hollow it out to reduce weight & allow the top to vibrate that little more freely.
the pickup for this and the cutaway mando are in the post, so when they get here I'll get these both finished & set up.
finished for Christmas?
looking VERY likely!!
00 zouk, neck block fitted.....
linings glued in
started on a cutaway jumbo
the top is bearclaw sitka spruce from Alaska.
top joined.
