Over the last week I've built the neck of Dave Hilyard's Baritone Guitar and just this morning I've completed the last little bit of careful detailing and finish-sanding. On Monday I'll be brining it across town to Addam Stark for his fine work with the lacquer. Dave likes a big neck. He asked for a 1&7/8" nut and 2&3/8" string spacing at the bridge. Each of those is 1/8" wider than the most common dimensions. I'm going to bring this to the gig I'm playing tomorrow (Nov 4) in Santa Clara. Maybe some of the people there would enjoy seeing an instrument before it's been lacquered.
