November 2014

Some new projects started while waiting for two OM’s to come back from finish.  I completed the laminating forms and am starting my first double side size 2.  It will be interesting to see if double sides do anything positive for a really small instrument.

It will be Mahogany with a master grade Lutz top I baked in 2011.

                                    Bending the sides.  I bend the two laminates together so they fit perfectly

I am also building a 17”  electric Archtop.  It will have double Cherry sides and laminated Cherry back and Laminated Spruce top  with a mounted t.v. Jones neck pickup.  25” scale
