Some months ago when I last posted here, i was busy building what would become The Woodmouse guitar. It was finished, and has been a daily player since then!

Some grudges don't fade.

A builder who refused to sell his guitars out of the same building from which he’d been fired many years before.

Tell me this: was he being principled, stubborn, or wonderfully impossible?

The first step in making the fret ends more friendly is knocking off the sharp corners.

This guitar features a narra (New Guinea rosewood) back and sides with an Engelmann spruce top. It'll sing its first notes very soon.

I'm excited to resume work on this guitar, which features a beautiful set of bubinga (there's an inner layer of cherry on the sides). With the top now attached, it rings like a bell.

I build guitars - this is one of mine. One thing I love about it is the wood I get to work with. This model is called Sola, and has a flame maple top.

The spruce contrasts well with the redwood top. Inside detail showing the cutaway on this custom Zayante model just before I close the box.
