Here is my second reso. It is cherry with walnut fretboard and mahogany binding. The finish is spray can lacqur.
The date is wrong, as I just bought the camera. I strung it up 3 weeks ago. It sounds better each time I play it.

Serge, the top is cherry also. It went very well with the spray cans. Better than I thought, and no I didn't know you were into resos. Come to North Carolina, and you can play it, it sounds great. |

Jeff, that's quite nice. The walnut turned out plenty dark, too. Did you treat that (that fretboard) with anything? Stain it? Hmmmm? Steve |

No Steve, I didn't put anything on it. It is just naturally dark I guess. Serge, I used 3 1/2 cans in about 8 coats I think, I lost count. |
