That is some handsome purf and binding. Looks very clean from the pics glen. A unique guitar for sure.

Love this guitar, Glen.

How do you scrape/rout finish off the top below the bridge with that bridge shape??

Hi Ed,

It's my first mustachio bridge, so I will have to figure that out. So far, I prefer to scrape the finish with my other guitars.

BTW, all building will be put on hold for me. Packing up the shop, and rest of the house as we are moving to Florida in 8 days!! Damn, it is shocking how much stuff we accumulate in our shops!!. Anybody in the Tampa area?

Hmmm...who's going to be shooting John's videos now...

I couldn't imagine packing up & moving-on w/ all the things we've got in our house. Good luck w/ your move & keep up the good work. Is that rift sawn oak you have there?

That's Quartered oak. John and I did a vid shoot a week ago, so a lot of footage to edit and get out. It's a small world, and will be back up often, so no worries about future shoots.

Dang Glenn I've missed this build somehow. Looks stunning. Some wild purfling there for sure. How did the move go?

Thanks Guys! The Purfling is based off my 1925 Joseph Nettuno Grand Concert guitar that I have owned for years - see attached pic.

Kevin, move went well - totally exhausted!! We are in a temporary living for the next 3 months. Our house won't be ready till mid December. SO no building for me for a bit. We have moved most of our stuff into temp storage (I hope NEVER again to move the shop!!!). The challenge will be for me to find stuff. :-).
