Well, OK. I held my breath and did a sound port with binding on guitar number 3. I am going to use rosewood for the binding so I did that for the port too. The black veneer is not super visible here but will probably stand out more with the final finish.



I think is looks good enough for this one. I'm planning on using maple for the guitar 4. I was nervous about this and finally had to realize that this is not a pre-war Martin, it's just something I made and if I screw it up I can always make more rims. I'm glad I can breathe again!

That looks fantastic. Top work!

Now that work is clean. Well done!

You just can't beat rosewood or ebony to hide all our flaws.

I like it Eric!

Great job!

Thank you, Barry. Hiding flaws seems to be the nature of the craft, eh? The more flaws I make the better I'll get.
