Weissenborn update #10





I know, I know, I skipped #8 update (that will remain a mystery!) Anyway, the top is finally on, back and top are trimmed. I've decided this one will remain unbound, Keep it simple. I couldn' t resist gluing the maple veneer into the fret slots before I profile the fingerboard. I think it looks pretty clean, eh.
