Australian/New Zealand Luthiers Forum

Well today I am wearing a wine coloured cotton indian top with embriodery and a dark green fleece jacket... Oh sorry... :oops: :wink: Well, here's the bracing on my Cittern.. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y115/mishmannah/Cittern%20build/box.jpg In my opinion it does look a little on the heavy sid...

*sigh*

banjo, huh??

Well it's given me a laugh!!!!

I just revisited memories of Hesh, Billy and the Photoshop days..

Ummmm, has WAS finally got to me?

Aye, Tim seems to be the man- thanks for the heads up on asking him for stuff that isn't advertised on the website. I had a lovely set of lace Sheoak from him the other day, I'll ask him if he's got some Myall too. I'll have a think as to what EXACTLY I want before I get a quote & pull the trigger. ...

I have been affected by the tonewoods I have seen on this forum, namely Myall, Tassie Blackwood and Tassie Myrtle. Basically I would like suggestions/links as to where I can purchase such delicious peices of wood, the blackwood & the myrtle for back & sides, and having a go at making myall bridges. ...

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't even remember where the box is!!!!

Phew....all is well, then.

I gotta try and make something a bit more conventional...... Oh Martin, please don't!! STAY outside the box!! I've already commented on this fine, fine build. I don't know if I have already complimented you on the shape of this guitar and the fretboard treatment, but it doesn't hurt to say it again...

Welcome JJ.

ooooooohh yes..I remember it WELL...

ROFLMAO!!!!!

EDIT: Paul, I have just re-read the thread and want to add my deep condolences for this tragedy.

RIGHT THAT'S IT!!!!!!!

I've moving to Australia.

You lot seem to have the best tonewood in the world!!

Welcome Arnt!

LOL, it's like the good ole days...

Goodness me, Bob, those pictures aren't for the faint hearted. What BEAUTIFUL wood!!!

And Maitland looks really delighted- don't you think that guitar suits him!!

Serge, bless ya mate! I listened to Chuck Missler's stuff WAY back when I used to listen to Transworld Radio- THOUGHT provoking stuff.....I really love the rich banquet he provides through his exposition. One very memorable talk was about the Anthrophic Principle... I'm going to listen to these link...

hey Bob, that's going to be some bassy guitar!! Walnut is a great wood to work with!

Thankyou Kim for the welcome. It's GREAT to be here!

Hesh, as always, your guitars are absolutely stunning! I have always enjoyed following your tutorials/build threads.

If it's any consolation, I am struggling with #3. A busy lifestyle and design modifications is holding me up!!

HESH!!!!!!

*faints*

SERGE!!!!!!

It is GREAT to see you here!!!!!!!!!
