Introducing “Lucky”, appropriately named as it’s a seven string guitar! Reclaimed Western Red Cedar top with Pau Ferro ( Libidibia ferrea ) back and sides. It’s a 650 mm scale with ebony fingerboard and bindings. The neck is 60 mm wide at the nut and 70 mm at the 12th fret and made from Spanish cedar. The tuners were made by Thomas Rubner GmbH and of course it has a 21 hole bridge !?! LOL. It’s my first lattice braced guitar and I’m extremely pleased with how this one turned out. I’ll post some sounds clips when I can.

Working on the shooting board dimensioning a small bit of ebony for the end graft on the Archtop guitar. It’s amazing how such a small, simple part can effect so many other aesthetic choices and decisions in the final design of the guitar!
