Overcoming a few challenges and frustrations, the guitars are finished.
After endless sanding, delicate handling, oiling, waxing,buffing and more buffing...everyone is happy!
The guitars are so beautiful and sound incredible.
Kia is off to play her guitar in America this year as part of her school music programme and I plan to resume guitar lessons again.
This is just the beginning...Italy?
THANK YOU CHRIS

Endless Possibilities
One for Two.
This double necked guitar was built by Master Luther, Chris Wynne at Montsalvat in Melbourne, who helped Kia and I produce our finished, stunning guitars.
Chris offered to swap this for Kia's beautiful guitar but she turned it down. Perhaps we can make our own double neck next time.

Time Was Going So Fast
The time was flying so fast at times, and it was during a heat wave with temperatures outside getting up to 45 deg c.
My brain was not functioning very well and I felt I was going a little crazy...

Stunning Wood
The oil really brought the wood to life. The colours jumped out as the oil soaked in.
Stunning!!
Stunning!!
Precision Placement
Precise placement of the fret board onto the neck is critical so the Master "Chris " is here to assist. (Thank goodness)

It Really is a Guitar
The trimmings and the neck are now on and it really is now looking like a guitar. Very soon it will sound like one (We trust )
