Thanks for the nice comments. It is a bit on the wild side. I'm calling this my "Tex-Mex" guitar. It gives off a southwest vibe. I kept track of my time building this one and the guitar is ready for finishing in just over 51 hours. We'll see how long the finish process is. I don't know whether that's a good time or not as I haven't kept track before.

One year ago I was starting to glue the top bracing on my first one, the 000 kit from Ken. Love this stuff. Thanks for letting me share my fun.

The wood really pops with that fill. Looks like you are applying zpoxy.

Amazing guitar. Should have great sound. Quick question from a newbie, is that neck walnut? Many thanks and congrats.

Thanks George. Yes it's walnut. First time I've done a walnut neck. Easier to work than I was thinking it would be. Not really as heavy as I thought it might be.
