Finally, time to work on the guitar again!

Actually taking the week off to put a few hours in.  I'm hoping to get the body finished (at least most of the body complete.  I would imagine there will be hours of finishing and sanding as well as designing/cutting the bridge but I'm hoping to have at least the "box" completed.


This is the back side kerfing.  Basically just a flexible peice of wood that follows the shape of the body to allow more surface to glue the top and back to the sides.


Chunk of wood that will become the neck.


This is cut to the basic shape but allows for lots of wood to be slowly taken away to reveal it's final shape.

Also spent a little time cutting the back center support piece and adding radius to the supports for the back.  No photos of these parts until the back is assembled and glued.
