Nice work Liam. Love the binding and the soundholes. Did you use any particular method to determine the length and breadth of the slots for the soundholes or was it dictated by aesthetics?
Miguel
Thanks Miguel. Mostly aesthetics. The thickness is as per a 1/8" cutter, although I've been testing on scrap to go with laser cutting from now on. Changing the size of the soundhole is supposed to change the sound of an instrument but I can't hear it with the resonator instruments. The second instrument in the batch won't have any sound holes as per the national resophonic design. We'll see if it sounds different.
