Can you give me a rundown on how you did this and got such a good joint?

Ronn, Here is a link to the post when I was about to deliver the guitar. There is a good explanation to the cutaway. The biggest up side to a non-bound cutaway is the wood selection. Rosewood is easy to hide gaps.

So, take a look at the post. If you have any other questions, I'd be more than happy to help.

Cheers.

Ronn, don't get involved with this type of miter--it's obviously done using black magic!!!

Actually, it's just painted on. OK, there I let the cat out of the bag.

I should have been a painter.

Well, Larry, there's nothing wrong with your eye-of-newt!!! She must be quite near-sighted, though.

Go Carlton! I've often said that myself! Got 'er LRK a few years ago, and I was sure that when she walked out of the OR and saw what she REALLY married she'd run screaming! But, she turned out to be a good sport!
