I tried a bunch of new stuff on this one. The tailpiece is handmade by me and I had it gold plated.
I also did the binding on the back of the head which I’ve never done before.
It’s also a new head shape for me

Sitka spruce top.
Curly maple back and sides.
Hard curly maple neck with Gibson style truss rod.
Ebony fretboard with super 400 inlays - CNC by Tom Ellis.
And thanks to Darrel Friesen for supplying the Celluloid binding-Much appreciated!
25-1/4” scale

Brad,
Every time I see those beautiful arch tops against the stone and cement, I cringe!

Wow!

I like the way the truss rod cover mirrors the peghead inlay. [:Y:]
