Recent build, Cassie.

Post by Taffy Evans » Wed Dec 20, 2023 9:25 am

Hi, here is a more recent build, Cassie, a Dreadnought-style guitar that was a commission that came with a short list of customer requests. As with all my guitars, this one is named after a gold mine in the Charters Towers goldfield region.
The top is Englemann spruce, back and sides Mahogany, ebony fingerboard, New Guinee Rosewood neck, Cooktown Ironwood bridge, and ebony and MOP inlays.

Hi, thanks asgilbert and yakka. I failed to mention this build was jinxed from the start, from the first set of sides splitting when bending and having to be replaced, to compressor failure mid spray session.
