I have been meaning to post a few pictures of my latest build for a while now, but have managed to finish it before actually getting round to posting any. I have however documented more of the process on my website / blog (link in my signature) for anyone who is interested. Specs14 fret 00 size with 633mm scale Back and sides - English Walnut Soundboard - Western Red Cedar Neck - 3 piece laminated mahogany Fretboard / bridge - Bog Oak          I am planning a parlour style guitar for my next build, and I promise to run a build thread this time. Hopefully I should get started in the next few weeks. |

Lovely looker!
And, yes, a build thread for your next one would be much welcomed, thanks.

ooh, there's a nice looking bit of kit!
Is it a commission? Or did you just fancy building it?

Thanks for the kind comments guys.
Leo - No its not a commission build, its one for me. Hopefully I maybe able to sell one or two in the future as I only have so much space in the house although you never can have to many guitars :-)

Very nice looking guitar indeed! Fine craftsmanship.  I've always found cedar and walnut a combination that works well. With the shorter scale and relatively smaller body size that's the type of guitar I could happily play. Moves on before GAS kicks in!  Mark |
