This will be my third "0" sized
multi-scale. Today, March 14, 2008, this guitar's finish is all on,
and awaits only a little more hardness before assembly. The back and
sides are an unusual nearly dead black
Cocobolo I usually refer to as CocoNegro, the top is Carpathian Spruce.
|
This commissioned guitar has
it's varnish complete.Because of the multi-scale aspect, the volute on
the back of the neck has it's two shoulders offset 1/4" from each
other. This is an interesting design resolution problem. |
The Mother of Pearl top purfling
is Black Lip Pearl, often called "Black Pearl".
|
The Black CocoBolo isn't quite
black; what is? In this photo I upped the light and contrast to show
the color. In regular indoor lighting I usually see not color at all,
just black. It is beautiful wood in a sleeper way. |
