Here is a video/sound clip of my first build. The sound is from a consumer grade video camera. I installed a K&K pickup but this clip is NOT using the amplifier.

Very nice!

I am thinking about putting a sound port in my next build. Will you ad one to your next build?

Here is another video where I use the K&K pickup through a small Peavey amp.

Yes. The next build will be a Dreadnought Redwood/Mahogany and it will have a sound port too.

I played this one in church last Sunday. There is something very satisfying about playing on an instrument that you have built.

Cool to see the progress of the finish. I'm thinking of FPing my first build too ( should only be another year or two before it's done :) ) Looks and sounds great!
