Guitar Building Workshop – July 2013 – Days 6-10
Days 6-10 of a 10 day one-on-one guitar building workshop with Chad Jennings
This amazing guitar is now in the finishing stages and it will be a couple weeks before we see it strung up and hear it played. Chad worked like a master craftsman in the shop and his eye for designing and working the fine details is resulting in a treasure of an instrument. Jay will be completing the finish and then it will ship to Chad in California.
This is the first flat-top acoustic guitar that Chad has built.
The Project:: Small Jumbo guitar with compound cutaway, Cocobolo back, sides and headplate, Carpathian spruce soundboard, mahogany neck, ebony fretboard and bridge – both bound with bloodwood and wood purfling, bloodwood binding, side soundport, Manzer-inspired wedge-shaped body
