I've been building ukuleles for about three years with the idea that if I get my feet wet building ukes, then building a guitar would be much easier. I got my opportunity when I was asked to build a ladder-braced parlor by Rich Berry, who plays delta blues around the KC, MO area. I contacted several OLF subscribers before starting and got some good information. Thanks for your help! Here's Rich playing his new guitar for the first time:

Well done Boatpaddle! I can see the joy in his face. Makes you feel like a million to bring smiles like that to someone's face, doesnt it?

Well done!
