Hi all, was thinking I would make a Dreadnought. took some shots and thought I could share them and show the progress so far. Had some old Honduran Maogany that I thought would be perfect for this one. The top is not decided yet, thinking of using Lutz or German, not sure Advices are all welcomed :-) :D .
shellacing the inside on this one for the first time, looks so much better, not sure if there are any benefits to it ?
also made 2 new bridges, not sure what would work best :? .

OH, i never told you guys, I got married a months ago. [:Y:] So I guess I need to buy me a shaver and deodorant hahahaha.
shellac and superglue dont seem to do the trick hahaha

Lars.

Lars I really like the bridge design of the upper one. In fact, a combination of the central portion of the upper, and the wings of the lower would be very aesthetically pleasing. At least to my eyes. :D Nice clean work BTW! [:Y:]

Nice looking bridge, and I like how you do your label off to the side like that. Nice looking guitar, hope it sounds as good as it looks.

Love your dreadnought. You have come a long way in your building. I still remember your first one.

Take care and tell the missus we say Howdy.
