My Secrets for Jointing Tops and Backs - Acoustic Build - Ep 3

[@iwokeupthismorning2]

The set of skills you already have at your first build is so helpfull, I started building acoustics durring the pandemic without any woodworking experience, you should see my first build, terrible, I'm building my 15th guitar now, they are now more decent. Thank you so much for sharing, very impressive

Nice work on jointing the tops of the acoustic guitar build. I like that trick. I’m sure I’ll be able to use it for some other shop projects.

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

Thanks Tom! Getting that water-tight joint is a technique that bridges a lot of different materials and build projects.

I have acoustic builds in my future. Thanks for these they will be good reference material.

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

I am amazed at how different the work is on the acoustics... I am going to school on these things for sure.

Nicely done! “Must be living right!” I’ve had days where I get it in 10 minutes and days where it’s taken me two hours 😂 but that’s all part of the process.

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

HAHA... Its funny that way. Feels like it should be automatic, but it's absolutely NOT!

[@ChampangeCharlie]

That's really interesting and will have to try this out! P.S. I've had a problem with a recent order and dropped you an email about it a week back. Hope to hear from you soon!

Nice edge technique! What thickness are your panels?

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

Thanks Brian! The panels start around .150" (1/8"++). I will sand them down to .110"-.090" (3/32"+).
