Hi Jerry, not much progress as of late. Mike is building 4 other guitars at the same time plus I have been pretty busy myself. Here are a couple of pics of the body with the bindings all scraped down:

Steel, the back on that guitar is going to look superb !!

I have a question .......... the photo's that you post can be enlarged by clicking on them. How is that done please ?

 

[Steelpickin']

Hi coastie,
Those are known as thumbnails ( of course) and are an option when I use my Pro account at Photobucket. Of course "Pro" only refers to the fact that I pay for it instead of using the "free" service they also provide.

Thank you most kindly.

Yessir, some nice figure, the blaze down the middle is sweet.

Can't wait to see it on Youtube.

 

[Steelpickin']

Thanks! yes, there is a lot of diagonal waves and curls going on in the back wood. Hard to see with out a fininsh on it but I think it will look fine!
Hopfully it will sound as good as it looks! :wink:

 

[JerryR]

That'll be outstanding when the finish goes on, I reckon, Larry
