00 Sitka / Hawaiian Koa falcate steel string with video.

Post by John Parchem » Wed Mar 26, 2025 4:33 pm

Here is a guitar I have been working on for a bit. It is my first guitar after two eye surgeries to get decent vision in one of my eyes. I took off building for nearly a year. Now my vision is pretty good and I am enjoying my time in the shop. Here is the guitar just strung up. It has great tone. Once I tune the back down a bit I will be at 95 Hz Sound hole, 180 Hz top with the back some where between 226 and 240 Hz. I just have a to spec setup (no on guitar adjustments.} I will wait a week for the guitar to settle in and do all of the fine setup.
