Let's build a guitar - Part 5

Never got round to wrap this up really. So sorry, got sucked in to finishing it and then I was too busy playing it. :-) Here's a few pictures of what came after part 4.

Marked out fretboard for cutting.

The fret slots I cut with a dozuki blade. Piece of tape serves as a depth stop.


Fret slots cut and brass inlays fitted.



Body stained and spray painted. Purfling from strips of maple veneer.


These I steam-bent over a kettle and super-glued them together to fit the body.


And voilá. Maple purfling. Chachingggg!
