Neck carved, sides glued

Have been somewhat confused since we had burglars here during the weekend. But things are more or less sorted now so I did a few things on the koa soprano.

I installed lining strips and blocks, and today I glued the sides to the soundboard.

Then I took ten minutes and carved a neck. Lovely to work with, that Spanish cedar. Carves easily.

The concerts are getting more layers of tru-oil as well, but I have to sync that with the family being out.

  2. We'll get over it. It's just a hassle with the insurance company. They always close 10 minutes before I call them!
