Last week-end I did not upload the neck work. So, this post will show many progresses. Now, I moved to detailed work for the neck and the body. I did neck head outline cut and peg hole drilling. Waverly high geared ratio (23:1) tuner will be installed. This is a new model from the Waverly brand. The gear ratio has been 18:1. Finally, Waverly introduced 23:1 version, and it makes much easier tuning work. Fret slots were cut for the 650mm scale on a west African Ebony material. Sound hole section has not been profiled at this moment, and I did a rough cut for the detailed final shaping.
Binding material were cut from a Brazilian RW material that is a left over from side materials. Then, binding and purfling materials were bent fitting for the body curves. Beveled armrest portion was profiled. Purfling and binding channels were cut. Now, the body is ready for the purfling and binding install. I already completed the back-side purfling installation.
