Strung up two new guitars yesterday and I'm very happy with how they turned out. They are both lively, complex and have a wide range of timbres. The one with the elevated fingerboard has a bit more punch to it, whereas the standard model is more traditional sounding... for lack of a better word.
Custom concert model:
- German spruce top
- Indian rosewood back and sides
- Spanish cedar neck with elevated ebony fingerboard
- Sound port, rosewood armrest
- Gotoh premium tuners with ebony buttons
- 640mm scale length
- 52mm nut width
Standard concert model:
- Western red cedar top
- Indian rosewood back and sides
- Ebony fingerboard
- Spanish cedar neck
- Gotoh premium tuners with ebony buttons
- 650mm scale length
- 52mm nut width
In other news, I spent wayyy too long inlaying the center motive of a new Torres rosette taking time to square-up each tile with a little sanding block. Looks great though!
