Steve Roberts Guitar No.15

Post by steve roberts » Sun Oct 14, 2012 9:58 am

Hi guys,
I've attached some photos of my latest guitar - No. 15 - which I completed yesterday. It is made of Madascan Rosewood with Blackwood trim and I'm very happy with the sound.
I am going to try something different with No. 16 and I will post photos of it on the instrument builders forum shortly.

Oh yes, I also would appreciate a close-up of the rosette (if possible). :D
