Shaun C's XGC continued

More of Shaun's guitar coming together


Routing a channel for the top purfling, a herringbone with a green stripe down the middle.


Installing the purfling and the binding on the top.


Glued and taped


All leveled and looking right.


The back has only a center strip and binding.




The wedgy.


Cutting the dovetail mortise in the soundbox.


And a watching tenon in the neck


Ready for final fitting


Dry fit, now we shape the neck.



Neck shaping by hand plus powertool







Just a little more sanding and we'll be ready for finish.
