Frankenbacker - an RC-4 build
Hell-o!
This will be the story of my very first build, an RC-4 kit which I chose over the RCA-4 kit just because I liked the grain and colour of the RC-4 wood better. So, the parcel arrived today and I was anxious to get my hands on it.
After a closer inspection, a few flaws were found:

I emailed Adam about these but he told me that glue would fix them. I sure hope so...
Anyway, I glued the cracks and clamped the hell out of it. Then I started working on the Allparts tail piece positioning.

After a hundred and one measurements, I grabbed the router and made a cavity for the tail piece.

The journey continues tomorrow (hopefully)!
