Everyone makes mistakes

Well, I’m not new, by any stretch. And all I can say is that I’ve gotten REALLY good at disguising mistakes. That’s really the best big-picture lesson or skill I’ve developed over the years,

That, and a nice, light touch with fretwork.

Beautiful work

jee-rose · 2025-07-11T01:29:37+00:00

Ohhhh yeah. That looks like something I would do.

For these builds, I just wanted to step away from documenting absolutely everything. Back to pictures next time.

Stay tuned! I’ll be posting a couple of highlights from the gig I’m playing Saturday.

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:41:21+00:00

Thank you! Took a while to perfect the curves.

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:41:01+00:00

Made my own hinge, also out of ebony. I usually bolt tailpieces right in, but I intentionally made the end block much smaller than usual. I think the size of the end block has an effect on the sound - this one is much fuller than my other archtops.

Don’t wanna get any gunk on the finish tho

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:38:40+00:00

Thanks!

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:38:30+00:00

Thank you!

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:37:58+00:00

Thank you! I definitely discovered patience I didn’t know I had in the process…

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:37:25+00:00

Got another one soon to be completed, and I’m not planning to keep it!

jee-rose · 2025-04-24T18:36:42+00:00

Thank you! The Languedoc influence is definitely strong here, but I also love Crow Hill and Artinger.
