Hey Guys. New top is on. Body is bound. I have to scrape the last fill of CA (which is drying right now) and I should have it boxed up and ready to ship today. Where is it going? Thanks Paul

This would be good time to put the lable in?

where are the pictures! We need picture man

Yeah, yeah, when I get the CA scraped off I'll snap a pic.
Oh, for future reference: On a project like this we'll find all sorts of stumpers. One that I found was the fact that the binding was pre-bent upon coming to me. This made the purfling IMPOSSIBLE to bend the long way in the waist. So I had to go with a vinyl product I have. I looks like maple but it's not wood. Wish there was another way but I tried and tried, used softener, used heat, tried some more and it just wanted to roll on me. You all should have been in my shop, you would have learned some new cuss words.

really? I would consider myself quite an aficionado.

Yes, I agee... show us some pics. :-)

Is the neck built yet? Who is doing that?

Here you go, enjoy.



The white on the butt strip is maple. The white on the side binding is the vinyl I was talking about earlier.

Im not looking - my hands are covering my eyes - I promise !

I have been told that a set of the hand drawn plans were going to be sent my way to redraw but I have never seen them. When and if I do I will make cad set for lance to add to the libarary. Or when the guitar gets sent here for me to add the lable I will make drawings based off shadowing it.

I didn't know you knew any swear words

I didn't either. That's what makes the process so interesting.

Hey
You know it could be coming to me next.   Are we ready for a neck?

John

I have a case for one of these guitars that I'm not using at present and will it send somewhere if JJ will confirm that Cedar Creek is still on for a replacement. Should I send it to Paul Woolson or John Kinaird?

I'll work up a double box system and send it on to John K. (if he'll send me his address). John H. why don't you send the case to John K. It's ready to move as soon as you guys are ready for it. Paul

Send it here, I'll see what I can do with it.
