I thought the bracing was too weak so after further consideration i rebraced the center brace - a thick tall brace. the top radius had to be different than the traditional classical radius, because there is no mid ladder brace. the radius is all the way to the upper structure brace. because of the technique the top radius created a weird neck angle. the top is --/ compared to the neck. i decided to leave it like that and try the tom bills style harp angled top. somehow i got lucky and without this being planned out the neck angle is ok and action is fine. many mistakes - left visible for easy problem solving. Huge hole in the sides for easy fixes. i gotta redrill the tuner holes once i buy a classical tuner jig. dunno how i managed to drill first two classicals straight... Alaskan Cedar top. German spruce braces. Granadillo bns Ebony mahogany laminated neck Macassar ebony fretboard Ebony bridge w carbon fiber tie blocks. Labella strings onthe recording ...Din ciclul „oriunde dar numai pe mijloc să nu fie gaura” :), îți propun să arunci un ochi (și, cine știe, poate și încerci) la un Contreras model Carlevaro (pe unul dintre exemplare l-am și încercat cu ani în urmă), care are practic o fantă de jur împrejurul feței, sau chitarele Gottschall (un lutier german, s-a dus acum niște ani, super-simpatic omul), acum preluate de Berrick, care sună de înțepenești și care practic nu au eclisă de-o parte și de alta a gâtului... iarăși wow.

CiocanelBloodyCIocanel 3317 Posted December 18, 2020 O sa ii pun padauk. Purpleheartu pierde culoarea rapid si nu e asa de stabil si dur. Pickguardu ar strica simetria Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nici spatele ca are crapatura aia which is why it was cheaper, but i will build the insides so that part is redundant and then put an inlay on the outside. When in doubt - inlay.

CiocanelBloodyCIocanel 3317 Posted January 19 The maderas barber spalted beech was the hardest wood to bend i've ever tried... And i can bend snakewood and padauk and granadillo... I started at 2.7 cause the wood seemed too flabby already and beach should work at this thickness. Nope! Snap! A little thinner? Snap. Hotter? Snap. Wetter? SsssSnap. Dry? Snap snap. No warning. 1.7 and hot and wet. I didn't measure right on the second side and it started to brake. It was at 2 mm. I immediately started to bend it back straight, made it 1.7 and continued... Already weak so it continued to want to break in that spot. Too difficult to change the shoulder bend position at this point so i thinned it down to something ridiculous like 1 mm and bent behind the wannabe crack. Crisis averted. The sides were gonna get laminated/doubled anyway so it's all ok. The mahogany i will use for lamination is 1.2-1.4 mm. With wide solid linings and more reinforcing they will never break. Heart attack avoided The archtop is a lot of work but it's the most awesome thing ever. Nothing cooler than carving and tap tuning and bracing... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CiocanelBloodyCIocanel 3317 Posted 10 hours ago Little OM Hand split braces for the archtop New flame maple sides for the archtop. The lamination on the other ones has a suspicious gap right in the neck joint area. Not gonna risk it. Plus the carve is so nice that it deserves a full flame body Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
