Back making

     This week, I made the back. Material is the King wood from Mexico. King wood is one of the Dalbergia family. This wood has closed tonal resemblance to the Dalbergia nigra. I have couple of sets of the King wood. I jointed and applied the latticed bracing as my standard design. Lattice bracing material is the Adirondack spruce. This time, I thinned the King wood to 2mm which is pretty thin profile for the back to minimize the guitar weight.
     Next week, I will make sides using the King wood with the Yellow ceder laminate.
