A few photos....

Just adding a few photos, as i get them organised from digital chaos,  of the small bodied acoustic that I was blogging about  a while back.


Im using a router and a specialised jig here to make an accurate, flat an level saddle slot.  Thanks to Phil Messer of the Totnes School of Guitar Making for generously letting me copy his jig :)  I'm allowing myself a little room in the relationship between, bridge height, slot depth and saddle depth in case I want to add a pick up later.


In the above photo you can clearly see the radius I've set for the string to fingerboard radius  relationship.  Including a safety line to stop myself from getting over excited :)

more photos soon.....

Also coming up soon, Lloyd Wellingtons acoustic...
