finish work
Here's a brazilian rosewood Martin-style dreadnought from another builder that I did the finish and final setup work for. Got to keep my finish chops up in between my own builds when I can. Still trying to get a booth installed in my shops- someday. Just takes time and money.
Neck reset final fit :: 1969 Guild Mark III
Whew! Guild neck resets are always a little more involved but this guy is just about ready to glue up. Guilds use a shallow dovetail angle so the fit is more critical than others. Time to buff out the finish repairs around the joint, glue, clamp and drink a beer.
Finish work :: Martin-style nitro sunbursts
I occasionally do finish / setup work to help other builders out. These two Brazilian Martin-style builds were prepped for finish, then sprayed and buffed out in nitrocellulose lacquer.
