This sort of thing is hard to do even if you have done it loads before so I am glad at how clean the mitre came up...

Andaman padauk body and German spruce front, snooker table leg recalaim mahogany for neck... Rings like a Whitechapel bell!
 
It looks glorious - can't wait for the sound sample!



One of these years, Pete...

Just stunning! I love paduak, it just sounds amazing. Beautiful work, Pete.
 
I have always looked in awe at your mitres Mr Devine, especially that stuff round the side and end grafts - much more masterful than the one shown above! I feel a bit proud of this because my eyesight is so poor at present - I need to go to the optomiterist to have em tested next week since close up work is getting impossible!

Judging by that mitre I'd say your eyesight is fine:)
