A lovely, shapely guitar there,Gary.

Here's a question to spark a furious* debate (not about strings!):

You have your truss rod adjustable at the 'head' end (accessible through a removable cover), and some others luthiers have them at the body end (accessible through the soundhole)... is that just personal preference? Or are there benefits/drawbacks?

All I can say is that having the adjustment at the head suits my style of building. I use a dovetail joint on the neck that is glued in place and I have a brace under the fret board that would have to be drilled through to accommodate an adjustment tool; those two factors put me off. Any potential weakness at the head is countered by a spliced head joint and a volute on the back of the head.
Thanks for your interest.
Cheers Gary
