I would definately consider myself an ameteur when it comes to Luthiery... however that hasn't stopped me. I've been lingering on here for quite a while and been studying out to accomplish building this guitar for nearly a year.
So here it all is... Most of my supplys either come from stewmac or lmii, however my top was actually my grandfathers piece he was going to make into a clock, but sadly died before that happened. It is a lightly spalted Myrtlewood, slightly porous but definately workable. The neck is Indian Rosewood with a Peruvian Walnut stripe, and an African Mahogany body. The template is from guitarbuildingtemplates.com and its a McCarty Semi-Hollow. My finger board is Rosewood and you can see my idea for inlay on a yellow page in one of the pictures... its a Maori Double Twisted Jade Pendant... something i've always worn and loved.... it will be made of Recon stone, and the vine White MOP and Gold MOP leaves...
Any ideas or suggestions are welcome!!!
Enjoy!!!
