Nice box. I heard two guys tonight you might know. The Indescribable Tour, Chris Tomlin with Matt Redman and Louie Giglio. Sat or stood behind Don Atwood in Fayetteville. Actually it was his stunt double. |

Nice wood and workmanship so far Peter  , i noticed you have the heel block with support for the FB extension, is it hard to do?
Way to go buddy, keep up the good work!

That is really beautiful. What kind of top and bracing did you go with? Larry |

Thanks for your kindness 
I'll be using Sitka Spruce top with X-bracing,the rosette is out of red flamed maple and abalam. I just finished bracing the top and should be posting some more pics soon! |

just glued most of the braces but the finger braces and soundhole re-enforcements still need to go on it, and of course I still need to thin out the braces

Coming along nicely, Peter. I like the rosette! BTW, how did you determine the peaks on your bracing? Any real plan or did that come in the process? |

Those peaks remind me of the 13th Fret Team build and the replacement top by Lance McCollum. Pikes Peaks! You are in good company Peter with those babies. |
