New lumber

I forgot to mention that last weekend I got some really great-looking spalted sweet gum for backs, a bit of mesquite and some more walnut from a friend who has his own portable mill. One piece of spalted gum was especially interesting because there was a worm-eaten section the exact size and shape of a back, so I decided to fill it with epoxy and try to make a guitar out of it.

  1. Unfortunately, my attempt to resaw this beautiful piece was less than desirable. I only managed to get one bookmatched set.
