Mahogany Carvetop Build

Yo! Started up another build that you guys might have seen in my other threads but I got enough done to warrant this things's own thread.

So it's a mahogany bodied carvetop with a purpleheart/mahogany splice neck with a zirocote fretboard.

25.5 inch scale
24 frets
Deciding between 2 Nordstrands or a HFH and a cool rail for something differnet sounding.
Wilkinson trem

So here's what I've got.

Scarf clamped



Cut some of the splice off



Fretboard and neck



and the body



Stay tuned!

I'm reconsidering this one - i might put a maple cap on the headstock and use it for the quilted maple carved one. I'll keep posting in this thread though.
