Closing a box

     I closed a box for a nylon model. Before closing the box, I applied two coats of Shellac for side, back, and top. Shellac coating improves moisture stability for a completed guitar. I usually use amber (non bleached) shellac, because the non bleached shellac is able to make ticker and stronger coatings. You may see a shellac coated top, and the top has amber color. This is the color of amber shellac. After closed the box, I did taping test. This guitar showed more than 1-second long lasting tapping sound. Longer sustaining tap tone is a sign for creating a good sound quality for nylon strings guitars.
     Next week, I will close the box for the MD model.
