New project...Bubinga Grand Auditorium acoustic

[Chris C]

Way more difficult to work than I expected.....but it bent fairly easily. It took a while to get it bent but partially because ( I think) I left the sides a little thick to allow for extra sanding and scraping. I left them about .110.

I thought it would be more difficult to bend ...was expecting some facets but that didn't seem to be a problem.

Can't wait to see how this turns out. The wood looks fantastic and your lutherie is always inspiring.

Now we know what the Grizz cut those pieces for. Can't wait to see your progress on this one.

Had a friend make a triple 0 with bubinga sides and back. Beautiful guitar. Mark Fujanic has many choices of inlay banding with holly/paduk and holly/bloodwood and holly/sapele that might make great perfling for your GA.

I've got some bloodwood and I'm thinking about using that for the fretboard, bridge and binding. Thanks for the info..I'll check out his wares.
