Been back at college for a month now and my second guitar is under way. Designing the headstock and my inlay logo today, and got my lovely Yew back glueing up! This year I'll be making a Washburn 79 Parlour guitar. #luthier #annieslandcollege #glasgowclydecollege #stringedinstrumentmaker #guitarbuilding #yew #headstock #secondbuild #parlourguitar #leatherbarrowhandcrafted (at Anniesland College)

Happy Will is extremely happy 😀😀 strung it up today and it's sounding lovely. Need to do minor adjustments to the nut to lower the action a little, and hopefully have it finished on Tuesday! #firstbuild #glasgowclydecollege #firstguitarbuild #annieslandcollege #strungup #stringedinstrumentmaker #luthier #luthiery (at Anniesland College)

So close I can taste it. With the fretboard on, fret dots in and the neck finished being shaped, I just need to fret and I'll be French polishing within the week 😬 #firstbuild #firstguitarbuild #guitarbuilding #guitarbuild #guitarneck #fretboard #fretdots #annieslandcollege #Glasgow #glasgowclydecollege #stringedinstrumentmaker #luthier #luthiery #woodworking

This past week I've put a nice little feature on the tail of my guitar top and glued in my purfling. Next is to put on the binding 😀 #firstbuild #stringedinstrumentmaker #luthierinthemaking #luthier #firstguitarbuild #guitarbuilding #purfling #binding #spruce #abalone #rosette #mangowood #walnutwood #Glasgow #glasgowclydecollege #annieslandcollege #acousticguitar #acoustic #steelstring

Taken before my previous Timelapse - the end graft made of wild mango wood (which matches my rosette) and black and white vinears. Really happy with the result ☺️ the ribs are made of walnut #firstbuild #endgraft #guitarbuilding #guitarbuild #annieslandcollege #Glasgow #glasgowclydecollege #stringedinstrumentmaker #luthier #luthierinthemaking #acoustic #acousticguitar #wildmango #vinears #walnut

Very excited to get back in the workshop on Monday to close up my guitar. Glued the linings on today and I'm so happy with how it's looking 😀 #guitarbuild #guitarbuilding #firstbuild #glasgowclydecollege #stringedinstrumentmaker #luthier #annieslandcollege #linings #somanypegs
