Acoustic Guitar Construction

While I'm waiting for the lacquer to cure on my other two guitar it's a good time to start on my third kit build. I learned a heck of a lot building number one and two. I appreciate all the help and advise from members of the forum. This third kit is an outstanding KMG kit and I'm very excited to get started on it.

This one is a J-200 with ebony fingerboard and ebony mustache bridge. The pictures do not do justice the beautiful kit Ken sent me. The soundboard has some nice looking bear claw and Ken added a walnut strip to the back that looks fantastic with the flamed maple.

I really need a new camera but I'm to cheap to buy a good one.

Looks like you're off to a great start! So much fun opening a new kit and laying everything out.

Yes it is Dave. I hope this one turns out as nice as yours. Watching your build log is what got me gasin' for a J-200 kit.

Having seen this set in person -- yes new camera!!

OK, I'll start shopping for a new camera but it's going to put the hurt on my guitar kit buying funds. lol

It's time for a new camera. I've had this cheap little Canon for way over ten years. I might look at the Panasonic LX7 unless someone knows of a better camera at around $400.

One of our cameras is a Nikon Cool Pix S6100 -- you can catch them at Wally World for less than half price. Much, much, much less than $400 not a SLR but does pretty much everything.

Should be a real nice guitar when your done George.
