I finished placing the fingerboard inlay and side markers on Anna’s guitar, then begin the process of fretting. This went well and I started thinking of the next step, creating the bridges. I think this will require some new jigs and since those had to be ordered, I started working on the next round of guitars. I purchased Monkey Pod back and sides on sale from “Stew-Mac” several months ago and had two Spruce tops sets from 15 years ago. I sanded the monkey pod to thickness and joined the plates for the back. Then I prepped the spruce tops and joined them. I used the LMI plate joining jig for this and it worked well. I had a little more time top prep the three ebony blanks I have had for almost 20 years to finally make some bridges.
