Thanks for the compliments. My other hobby R/C airplanes taught me alot. I've built a ton of stuff over the past 20 years, using composite construction, wood , fiberglass , carbon fiber and kevlar , and foamcore vacuum bagged construction, so I am used to some of the processes. The guitars you guys build are beautiful and the craftsmanship is amazing. Still trying to learn all this guitar building stuff. I am sure I will have lots of questions, Thanks for the support. Jack.

Very nice work. Being your first build it's obvious you have very good woodworking skill.

Got the bindings installed, Made a little mistake on the back side binding by not utting the channel deep enogh , so the binding gets thinner around the upper bout. does'nt look too bad ,h well next one will be better. Here are a few pics. Jack.

Looks really good Jack. That's a magnificent spruce top. It's going to be a beautiful guitar.
