Over the next few days I'll be putting the bridge and tuners on Geoff's Concert Nylon and refining the setup. The rosette and headplates on this guitar feature some incredibly tight thuya burl. The top is Carpathian spruce, which is remarkably stiff for it's light weight. The back and sides are bubinga, the binding is snakewood and the fingerboard and bridge are perfectly quartersawn African blackwood with some nice straight tight grain. Here are some pretty pictures. I'll be sure to post some notes about its tone as soon as I can. :)
