I've finally finished this one, after putting a hole in the top, and then having to remove the bridge after it was glued because it moved and i didn't notice, plus a whole pile of other mishaps. It's taken just on 12 months, i'm not completely happy with it, just glad it's done at last.

Re: Cocobolo parlour classical
Wow, that's one sweet little beauty! The end result is certainly worth every single mishap during building I'd say.
Not sure if I would be brave enough to put on such solid looking armrest, but it does not look wrong at all and the whole guitar is a real eye-catcher!

OK, that makes you a less brave man than I thought you were Wayne, but the guitar still looks awsome good.
