rainy day workshop pix

prototyping some new parts on a rainy melbourne day after a visit to my TIG welder to see how the next batch of serie antonio metal necks are progressing.

and at the more traditional end of the spectrum - a mahogany and queensland maple bass, based on the full-scale 1960s epiphone embassy - fretted, painted and ready for an acrylic custom pickguard.

i wish that cavriago, italy wasn't so very far away this weekend.

wandrè celebration

i wish marco well on the launch date of his epic book about Wandrè the man, artist and luthier. regards to all my european guitar friends who are making the trek to rural italy for the launch party.

thanks, anthony
