This is my first commissioned instrument. I honestly don’t think I’ll do another because of the pressure ha. I don’t see how you guys do it. BUT it’s a pretty lil’ OM!
Sitka spruce with sapelle. Rosewood binding. Gotoh 510 cosmo black tuners. Buffalo horn nut and bone saddle. Mahogany neck. Ebony headplate and such. By far the tightest build despite some finish issues...
man doing a gloss finish is a whole OTHER thing!!
But I’m happy w her!
Here are the pics

The little bit of color in the top adds some visual interest.

I did get the bridge from Andy yes. He does great work. I just ordered a faux bound fingerboard to try out!
