Unfortunately, I am going into surgery on Friday.  So this is going to have to take some time.

Still, excited though.

See my reply for photos, I did figure it out!

Good luck on Friday.

Good luck on the surgery

Gorgeous guitar.  Really nice

 

[kucoyote]

Thanks all.  I should be back home Friday afternoon, and have the weekend to get initial recovery started.  Won’t be able to lift or strain for 3-6 weeks.  Still waiting on a few parts as well.

Cheers!

Beautiful guitar!  That's really something to look forward to when you are back in action.

Well, here's looking to an easy recovery. You can look at your guitar and imagine how it will come out. That should put you in a good, healing mood.

Good luck take it easy and get well after your surgery.

Nice guitar! Hope your surgery went OK.

 

[kucoyote]

Surgery went well.  Still won’t be allowed to drive for another week.  Am at the point now where I can start doing some work on this here guitar.

First thing is drilling (oh so carefully) the finished body for the Schaller-Hannes bridge mounting.  I have to borrow a friends 12” or larger drill press.  So with this COVID thing, have to coordinate that carefully.

Cheers
Mike
