Today, I'm working on the top and back plates of the acoustic guitar. I'm using my shooting board and a hand plane to joint the edges. Then I'll glue up the plates and get it rough cut to size. I'm making an Engelman Spruce top, and a Padouk back plate. There's still a long way to go, but its cool to see these parts together.

This is such a interesting video series, Jeff ! Great work!

Thanks Kathleen. Its going to be a long process but I am enjoying it. I can't wait to see the end result.

@terristroh3965 2 года назад

I’m really enjoying this build with you. Keep it up,

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Will do! I'm enjoying the process as well.

Tapping is also important in solid body electrics. It helps you identify a unique marketing angle to distinguish yourself from the established major players. 😁

@Lutzboater 2 года назад

I will probably never build an acoustic guitar, but this is sure an interesting series you are putting together. Looking very good so far.

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Thanks man! Its going to be a long haul for sure.

Get you a Mars eraser it's available at art supply stores. The come in a round form with a holder or in a rectangular one about an inch and a half long 3/4" wide and 3/8" high. They work will to erase on both paper and wood and don't smear much if any.

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Awesome. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see if I can find one.

@chillertechtexas4375 2 года назад

@SkyscraperGuitars 2 года назад

Great stuff!!! I'm still a step behind you. I'm resawing back and side sets today. Hopefully I'll be gluing up backs and tops next weekend. I also follow Eric's channel. He is a great resource for techniques.

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Awesome! You'll probably catch up with me pretty quick. I have a couple other things to knock out before I get back to this. Hey, are you going to the guitar show on the 20th in Denver? I'm planning to go up there to check it out.

@SkyscraperGuitars 2 года назад

@@homebuiltshop I'm the same way... TONS of projects going at the same time. I have several tools in development etc. I didn't know there was a guitar show. Sounds like it might be worth checking out if for no other reason than to get some inspiration.

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Thats what I'm thinking. Its tomorrow from 10 till 4pm, at the Delta Hotel. 10 E 120th Ave, Northglenn, CO, Sounds like there will be a ton of vendors, including a local friend of mine. I'm planning to be there as a spectator to check it out. Maybe I'll join in as a vendor next year.

@rcote1234 5 месяцев назад

Nice build series. I’m starting a build, and using mostly the same steps. Do you recall what the thickness of your sound board ended up to be? Not trying to match yours; just curious.

It's so cool, but, if it's a lefty, is is really a working playing guitar? :D

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

Ouch! Lol.

@borgonianevolution 2 года назад

Nice start. Beautiful wood you get to work with for this. I was wondering. I noticed when you used the wedge clap to mate the pieces that you focused on getting the seam right but the edges up against the fences were not flat to the base board of the jig. Then when you removed it piece it has a slight bow to it. Does that not matter or is that actually intentional for shape later?

@homebuiltshop 2 года назад

It is supposed to be flat at both edges. I may have not gotten the outer edges all the way down but it is going to be bent when the bracing is applied so it shouldn't make a difference. Ideally it needs to be flat at this step.
