Off to the airport to snag my son and his son and daughter, which we are excited about.
I had hoped to have his guitar completed by now, but that aint happenin. Two tricky jobs to do ~ make a pickguard template and cut it out, and make the nut out of dog chew cow bone. The nut goes in that little slot between the headstock and fingerboard. It's a persnickety, meticulous job, at least for me. Besides the geometry between the neck and bridge, there isn't anything more critical for the playability.
I don't think he'd be able to fly home with it anyway ~ we'll drive it out in the summer.
Happy New Year, my friends!
