I made the soundboard from a tree I bought 5 years ago from Jura in France (jura’s spruce).
\nThe back and sides comes from big planks of sapelli I bought to an old cabinet maker in Newark, England.
\nThey are around 30 years old.
\nThe neck come from a stair of one house I use to restore some years ago (african mahogany).The guy wanted to burn it but the wood was too wonderful for that and so I kept it!
\nAnd the bracing is make with pyrenees larch.
\nEbony and rosewood comes from my exotic wood supplier (shame, but I never travel to india or africa at the moment ^^).
\nThat it for the the wood…<\/p>\n
I made the guitar in my little workshop completely by hand (except to cut the tree), glued with bone glue,
\nand finished with a coat of shellac and beeswax for the neck (beeswax from the bee hive of a friend’s garden).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
