End up looking pretty?
Well, I didn't get much done around the shop over the last 4 days, what with both my girls being sicker than dogs, and me - well <-- pretty much says it all.
However yesterday I started feeling a little better and got in the shop. I did the bindings and purflings on this Redwood Rosewood E2. Tonight im going to try to level them. Ill post some pretty pictures when I get it done. I must say thought, at this stage, guitars are pretty ugly

Yes, thats an LS top, I have one more and its sold too.
Amazing, 3 of my last 4 guitars are LS redwood topped. I do have a few sets on hold though with two very generous builders. I just need to get some cash flow coming from these guitars in order to but a few more sets.

The redwood and the rosette have major curb appeal. Great work Lance.
