My custom tenor from Josh Rieck is underway. So, thought I'd post some pics from Josh about the build. As the title indicates the top is Carpathian spruce and the body is AAAA koa. Ebony was selected for the pin-bridge and radiused fretboard. Fretboard, top, and back are to be bound in curly koa. It will have Waverly tuners and a side sound port. Going with EVO fretwire and W/B purfling.
Here's the first two pics, a gorgeous koa back and a cool rosette made from the same back wood. You might have seen the back in an earlier post about wood selection. But, the rosette pic is new.
