Load moreThis week’s new start : a BRW and Old Stock Sitka Arum which will be available from The North American Guitar in early July.
Just curious: Is that light colored BRW the same density as the dark colored? Does it affect tone in any way?
Ugh that’d be a nice partner to mine…. No no I can’t. But 😍
Still, every single time, I love to watch the first coat of epoxy filler reveal the true color and depth of the wood. Like some kind of simpleton, my pleasure never diminishes. One of my favorite steps.
This is the No Nonsense Nautilus, Old Stock Sitka over perfect Honduran mahogany.Love the color. You'll have to play it for us so we can hear how it sounds!
Stunning
You breathe life into inert woods. ❤️🤙

Precious! A true gem. Thanks!
Wonderful sound!
Nice B
Did you shift the bridge backwards or did the shortened scale put the 13th fret at the junction all by itself? I've heard it said that moving the bridge to where it would be on a classical gives a warmer sound.
Ben, do you make one of those every 3 days?
Sweet! Awesome sounding (and looking) guitar Ben, thnx for sharing :-)
The short scale makes for a very sweet voice. Just beautiful
Another beauty, Ben, sounds amazing
