The next build?

[Hank]

Hey guys

Ok so now i've sprayed 30 coats and am waiting 5 WEEKS!
Still don't know what she sounds like, this has to be the most frustrating time so far,
So what to do now? start again of coarse, A classical for my daughter this time,

But what to use?
I've got a stick of Honduras Mahogany for the neck, some Ottways Fiddle back Blackwood, more Mahogany unknown species, Macassar Ebony, Qld Walnut and Qld Kauri.

I used the Kauri on my 1st build because it was here, am comfortable now to use something more traditional,

What do you guys think?

Cheers Hank

Can't get over the talented luthiers in oz, looking at the pics, these are true pieces, quite intimidating really, i have such a long way to go

Thanks again

Hank

I think Tim Spittle at Australian Tonewoods has some of Grahams spruce in stock. Email or PM and find out what hes got. The stuff is sold as 3A grade but IMHO its alot better and its light and stiff.
