I started a guitar with granadillo from Hibdon Hardwood and wanted to post some pics.

This will be a Martin 00 12-fret, with a cedar top (if I can sand the stain out, see other thread). It'll be minimally appointed with no purfling and granadillo (trimmed from sides) for the binding. I saw someone do something similar at the mimf and I really liked the look of it.

It was easy to bend and has been nice to work with so far. It did clog the drum sander pretty easily, but it was fine if I took the time to clean the drum after every couple passes.

It is nice looking Zoot, Jon.  It is going to be another pretty one.
