ES-3 second build custom.

looking real nice.

Thanks. Tailpiece problem solving is holding things up but on the bright side it gives plenty of time for the poly on the body to harden before I polish.

So now I have something like a tailpiece. It’s bit of a dogs breakfast of wood so I’ll hide it with purfling on the sides. Last night I finally found an undercarriage I could of used (US $30). Used up the last piece of wonky grain rosewood veneer. Seriously thought about trying to cut it and half and make more ‘V’ shapes like the headstock, but testing showed it wouldn’t match up well and I doubted my ability to cut through the veneer without splitting it.

Yep, that looks ok to me.

That's going to be pretty sweet I reckon

Thanks, time will tell.
What’s happening with Maps for Lost Roads?

Ha! Very little.
Gig last week triggered a dozen plays on Spotify and a download from bandcamp but basically all activity has reverted to its normal levels.
Working on a video for Denmark St as the one for Words went down pretty well.
In related news my next solo EP is almost ready for mastering.
Thanks for asking.

I was going to ask - I didn’t know if there was a section for users to post their links. Is it under your name blinddrew?

No worries blinddrew, I’ve got nothing better to talk about. I’m waiting on purfling to arrive. Couldn’t resist giving the body its first polish with my sponge pads, they seem to work well.

Purfling arrived. Things can start moving again.
