Started last October, my latest build, a concert pineapple, is finally finished, flaws and all! With each new project, I have hopes that it may turn out worthy of offering for sale, but, so far, no luck. Although the construction may be accurate and the action, intonation and playability may be satisfactory, I still end up with numerous cosmetic boo boos, which make the result unacceptable, in my estimation, to the buying market. Anyway, the learning process continues, and I enjoy every minute of frustration I endure! The specifics are: Sitka spruce top, Peruvian walnut Back, sides and neck, Indian rosewood fret board and bridge. The design was painted on the soundboard as my inlay skills have a long way to go.
I also completed a Favilla style soprano teardrop design which required a new top and refinishing . Built entirely from Honduras mahoganey.
Onwards and upwards.
