A few new guitarbody-shaping steps last month…appreciate any thoughts…🪚🪵🎸
During the build period of my guitar in April, I gave the final contours of the body and all the edges their definitive shape. I sanded away all major imperfections using various steel scrapers, planing tools, wood rasps, files, and sandpaper, sanded all edges and surfaces even smoother, and routed out the neck pocket... I think it turned out pretty well. What are your thoughts on these new steps I took during this phase of the build in April? 🪵🎸🤫
I hope to be able to glue the neck into the neck pocket this month or next, so that I can start shaping the transition between the body and the neck area... I can't wait! 😊🎸💎👌
