E.F.Elliott Surfer '65 model "Build"

Postby EFElliott » Sun Mar 27, 2011 6:38 pm

Hey guys and gals.

I thought I share some photos of a project I've been working on.
This is the begining of one of my Surfer '65 model guitars.

Cool! That's a gorgeous piece of rosewood. This Marco is a lucky guy having this coming his way.

I can't wait. Just looking at that gorgeous piece of rosewood tells me that the wood selection for this guitar is far beyond what the average guitar receives...I can just tell that it will ring like a bell when it is all married, and worked to final form.

I've never seen rosewood like that - where did you get it?

That looks great Ed. The only thing wrong that I can see is you ruined that great looking fingerboard by putting frets on it. LOL
