@boo evo gold is nice but it seems to be in short supply just now, well medium jumbo is anyway. I like to use black or gold hardware with it, mind you if I used it again I'd probably use the cosmo stu...

@nsj Yeah, lovely. Last time I did an ebony fretboard, I used gold Evo fret wire, it looked amazing. There is something about the dark ebony and shiny gold frets that is just wonderful.

Speaking of frets, got them in today and the side dots. Got the frets in really well this time, properly seated although I did have to fill a small chip. Still, I'm getting better at getting the shiny...

@nsj Nice work. That is a very nice piece of Ebony, lovely figuring. I like the fret markers too, I’ve not done that type yet.

@russ Great piece of ingenuity there @robin. What did you use for the metal struts? The metal struts are from cheap Aldi ratchet clamps that broke, I seldom throw anything in the bin. It was also ...

@russ I was just speaking to a young woman yesterday who is building an acoustic guitar completely out of mahogany, including the sound board. I had thought about making a sound board from mahogan...

Sounds good @robin. I was just speaking to a young woman yesterday who is building an acoustic guitar completely out of mahogany, including the sound board. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

@russ What wood will you use for the sound board and sides I've got the same mahogany for the sides and neck. Not got anything for the sound board yet, but I think it will be spruce.

@bpower I don't think I seen Mark do an arm bevel. I do remember him talking about it briefly that's it. When I was looking I watched a few videos but I liked the way driftwood guitars did theirs t...

@bpower very cool. Looks like a nice back. Are you going to be putting the arm bevel in? That was my original plan, but I'm keeping my options open, time will tell. I can't remember if Mark did an...
