SSJ and Nylon model are finished final coating. I also completed the bridge making for the nylon model. I changed the bridge shape to much smaller buss side size to minimize buss sound. I also increased the treble side size. Previously using Kasha designed bridge created too much sound compensation between buss and treble.
I have been working on the final polishing for the nylon model, and it will be finished by Friday. I will take the final assembly for the nylon model this weekend. I am very excited to test the lattice braced nylon strings guitar.

Top Saining
I applied yellow stain on the top for both SSJ and Nylon models. I have been using yellow stain for my latest builds for a year. Yellow stain fades a way over time; therefore, it requires slightly strong staining on the yellow top. After I applied the stain, I also applied very thin Epoxy cote using Alcohol thinning technique. Epoxy apply is for making an even color for overly sanded portions during filling sessions. Now, both SSJ and Nylon models are ready for final coat spray session. I will apply eight coats of EM6000 Water based Acrylic finish next week.
