The larson style bridge I made didn't really work with the aesthetics of the guitar so I made a new one similar to a martin straight bridge.

Re: Hot tubbin'
Yes, I'm hoping to have it strung up in the white to show a few people at woodstock. I can't wait for woodstock, I have a few really nice red spruce tops set aside for myself that are pretty cheap from one of my favourite tonewood venders.
Yes, I already bought the bolts, Hopefully they'll be here on monday. The tap tone is incredible and the colouring and grain of the top is really awesome.

I got my frets in, and tomorrow when the hide glue dries I'll file them and get the guitar strung up in the white.

That guitar is dope. (That means good in early 90's speak.)

Re: Hot tubbin'
I have guitar strings that are older than you! (j/k). Nice work.

Re: Hot tubbin'
Brian, the guitar looks great. I really like the top.
Is it really in the white or did you put some shellac on it to seal the wood?
