First Batch
Second Batch
Third Batch
All one piece tops and backs, X-braced, radiused necks and ebony neck stringers. Back slabs 11-13 and 14-15 are consecutive. The tops on 12 & 13 are siblings, as are 14 & 15. A rather lively bunch! 12 & 15 are spoken for. The other 3 are available. Contact me for pricing.
Fourth Batch
All Sitka tops, 4 1-piece backs (including 3 consecutive), slightly taller arching, slightly wider necks, taller ribs, all X-braced, a little twist in the spirit varnish recipe, an addition to the headstock inlay, and 12"radius on the fretboards.
Fifth Batch
All 1-Piece Sitka tops from the same split block! 2 with X-Bracing, and 3 with Tone Bars. #24 & #25 have back, ribs and necks all from one piece of fiddleback maple that was originally intended to be a cello neck. Sticking with the 12" fretboard radius. Very slight change in neck pitch. We have another small change in the varnish recipe.
