Re: One More Ladder Braced Birch GC
Joe, this is coming along great ... I am increasing developing a strong like for little guitars like this.
The symmetry on your binding tape job is very nice. The judges have posted their scores: 8.8, 9.3, 8.5, 9.7, 9.7, 9.2 ... way to go!!!
I'm glad Dennis asked about the bracing. It's interesting under the bridge ... kinda like another tongue or popsicle brace ... never would have even thought to try such a thing.
Great work
John

Re: One More Ladder Braced Birch GC
Thanks guys! I really appreciate the judges scores on my binding tape, one of my strongest areas......

Bone dust and all....

Re: One More Ladder Braced Birch GC
Nice job Joe! I really like the sound hole binding. I'll have to go back and see if you showed us how earlier in this thread. Looking forward to 'hearing it'. Is this approx a 00 size?
