Last of the pictures until further developments. Luis used snakewood for the tail graft which will tie in nicely with the snakewood bindings and armrest. His usual tail graft is narrow and straight, he suprised me with this shape. I am a firm believer in letting the luthier have "artistic liecence". I like it and think it will look great with the arm rest
Here is a piece of Macassar ebony to be used for the bridge, it came off the piece used for the fretboard so colors will match up well.
