The advanced students




Thought some of you might like to know what the advanced students are doing. After completing the journeyman course (2 mo... the course I'm taking) and building one electric and one acoustic guitar, those who stay for another 4 months get to make a classical guitar and an archtop. Here you see some work being done on the classicals. This week, they are putting binding and purfling around the edges. It's delicate, time consuming, and gorgeous when it's done.
I'll get some pics of the guys who are working on archtops and post them soon.
