John...The silence is deafening on this one!

If I remember correctly, it goes to Tim McKnight for fretting, etc.

I suggest you PM him for confirmation and an address.

Is anybody going to spray this guitar. I think Tim usually does fretting and setup after the finish has been applied. Tim is surely very busy right now in preparation for upcoming the Montreal show.

Seems to me I remember BobC talking about spraying the finish. Don't know if he has time anymore either as we all seem to keep him working pretty hard.John How38890.6539814815

Lance, that's how I remember it too, Addam jumped in and offered his services.

Tim McKnight was asking where the bridge was also. Bob Steidl replied he has a bridge roughed out but doesn't do final thickness until the neck is attached.

That would get it really close to complete when it arrives at Tim McKnight's doorstep.

Wow.

Hey John, before you ship that guitar off to Addam, why don't you take 5 or 6 nice photos with a neutral background and email them to Michael Payne for use as a label background and of course for posting here. Did you ever get a case for this guitar?John How38891.3688888889

The case arrived in late April. According to John K., it fits like it was designed. I seem to remember him posting a picture of the guitar in it's case a week or so ago.

Lance,

This guitar better not show up on Ebay in our lifetimes!!!

Somebody make a decision here. I always fret before finishing to avoid dings on the back of the neck etc. but I know others do the fretting last. Is this guitar going to the finisher next, and if so, which one?

John K. I'll check with Addam Stark and see if he's still on for this. Will answer asap.

Addam here. Sorry about not posting for a month or two. I had a new son Mason James Stark and it's Newport Guitar Fest time so I have been finishing about 30 guitar for the show plus a bunch that are not for the show. Also I have finished two celtic harps, a bunch of ukes and two lutes. Summer has been fun so far! As I email Bruce send that guitar out and I will get it done right away and then ship ot out to the next guy. Hey lance, do you want a free sunburst?

Hey Addam, do you ever shoot Varnish?

Author:  Addam Stark [ Thu Jun 29, 2006 4:28 am ]
Post subject: 

I have, but not many people ask for it. Mostly Mando builders.

[QUOTE=Addam Stark]   Hey lance, do you want a free sunburst?[/QUOTE]

OOoooooo Aaaaaa -- let me think about it! I might get killed if I say yes

Author:  John How [ Thu Jun 29, 2006 7:43 am ]
Post subject: 

No doubt Lance, but if that's what you want, it might be worth dyin for!!! If it was a mohogany or maple guitar, I would certainly do it.

Author:  Bruce Dickie [ Thu Jun 29, 2006 11:18 am ]
Post subject: 

Thanks Addam, I sent a circular email to you, John K. and Tim McK. Let me know if we need anything as it travels. I'd like to add one more comment, YAHOO!

Ah, we would only want to burst the top of the guitar. But lets talk when I have it, so I know what it looks like. What ever you want let me know, it's for you to enjoy.

I think a burst would look great. I love this size and shape of this guitar. :-)

Author:  LanceK [ Fri Jun 30, 2006 6:24 am ]
Post subject: 

I’m thinking a nice tobacco would look great along side the dark rosewood? No?

Im open to suggestions too. Everything except hot Pink!

Author:  Brock Poling [ Fri Jun 30, 2006 1:33 pm ]

But transparent clear to the edge. That would look HOT!!!
