I have a couple of electric guitars that I enjoy and I've been looking for a decent acoustic that's cheap enough for my nonexistent budget. Going through this thread reminds me of why I'm looking

I used to have that Thinkpad for work, years ago. Wow.

I don't remember when I bought it, but Windows XP was still the hot OS for PCs. Considering SP 3 was released 12 years ago, it's been a while.

Some CNC progress this afternoon. A Rosewood peghead overlay and a Black Walnut binding ring for the side soundport on the guitar project.

Cleaning up the binding channels and gluing the first set of bindings. I might need more twill tape.

I can't remember, Tony, have you made any guitars yet? As in parlor sized or bigger, 6 stringers?

I have, Kyle, an archtop I finished a couple of years ago. It was sort of my training wheels build and took me 14 years to complete. Really. I followed that up with a small body tenor guitar last year, and the one in the pic above will be a 6-stringer, using the same body plans as the tenor guitar.

Wrapping the second set of bindings. I used even more wraps this time. Some wise guy on another forum asked me if I was mummifying my guitar. One wonders if it was @drd1135 in disguise?

I would never avoid taking credit.

Seeing your work,Tony, reminds me of all the reasons I keep looking for a decent small guitar. Love it all. The photos are nice too
