Chris, you have really perfected your craft through the years! SALUTE!

That looks great!

#22 is creeping closer- Final coat on the front of the body, will do one more pass on the edges and back. And the frets are leveled and dressed. Next step is to fit the neck and start w/ mounting the bridge/pickguard. #23- also made some progress- neck is machined to 10mm thickness, w/ 5mm verticle sides and 22.5 degree angle to the flat back. Still some cleanup, but making progress. Getting a string retainer block this week.

That looks great!

#22 nearing the finish line- started assembly and have the neck sanded to #2000. The fretboard I used had some dips- sanded flat, but there will be extra fret leveling to compensate any weirdness. Should get assembly done and be able to start setup this week.

#23 sanded the body to #400, got dots on the fretboard and cut to rough width. Will get that mounted tomorrow, then start on a bridge jig.

CJ, what the general price range to have one of these beasts? BTW, are you in Portland or Seattle or something like that?

These look amazing.

In answer to the Q by Kniferide- $1k is a good starting spot. Obviously more or less depending on exactly what we're doing.

OK- I am super enthused and happy with #22. The goal was to build myself an instrument (I only have the original prototype, which is very rough). I wanted something very comfortable, very lightweight that sounded huge. There are a few refinements and changes in order of operations I will make for production, but this is pretty close to as good as I know how to build a guitar. and the best part- weighs just 6lbs, 4oz (2.83 kg) and no neck dive.

Hot damn, Jury.

Just lovely.
