yesterday. It is really awesome. Beautiful looking and sounding guitar. Action is perfect for me. Sounds fantastic too. It is not finsihed so I'm thinking of trying French Polish. The one piece spruce top and back is really striking. Any thoughts?

Thanks Ron. Super job.

Bob,
If you want an antique spruce look, you may want to try the orange shellac. Garrnet will also look good. Just use a clear seal coat first. People here already forgot that there were pics up just a few weeks ago. She is a beauty. Thanks for sharing.

What Tracy said. I had tried some orange shellac on my sitka spruce top and it came out a beautiful vintage tint... Very warm looking.   I remember those pics, bloodwood trim, right? I remember she was very pretty... Very pretty indeed!

Its a good friend of mine. shop.
My band saw only a 17inch Grizzly much to small to cut
one piece top,so I have paul do it for me.
am not sure what kind of band saw it is. I do known
he add a riser on this one. and it still took every thing this saw has to cut this spruce. he ended up charge me $30 a cut so i ended up with a top
thats about $80 top not cheap. sure save time not have me hand cut them. ">this is how we first starting cutting the top and backs ,
