Just to echo the previous praises and comments, the three neck carving videos (and all of your videos actually) are extremely helpful for developing method, jig ideas and uses, and achieving consistent results. Thank you so very much Pablo! Great job man, as always!

Excelente Pablo! Estes vídeos que o Senhor publicou, são os melhores que já encontrei na net em anos! . . . São os únicos que explicam duma forma metódica a melhor sequência para construir um braço. Também na roseta o Sr. escolheu o melhor método. Parabéns e obrigado pelos ensinamentos! Vida longa e próspera!

thank you Palo

Thank you so much for this handy video dear Pablo. I happen to round off the ebony as well by accident on my first guitar. I never see that on classical guitars but on other types its not unusual. Do you maybe know what the reason is not to round off the ebony together with the cedrella? Is it traditional or estetics or some other practical reason? Finding a way not to be too concerned after 7 months of building😊

Querido Pablo, por que no tallar y dejar lisa la superficie del talón de la guitarra antes de montar los aros, de modo de no arriesgar estos en el proceso de dar acabado con el formón? Gracias por tus comentarios y por tus videos, los que siempre espero con ansia y veo una tras otra vez descubriendo siempre nuevos detalles.

[@redkitekk]

Sergio Gonzáles pues tienes razón, yo siempre intento tallar lo más posible antes de montar la guitarra pero siempre hay un poco de talla que hacer para rematar el tacón una vez montada la guitarra y claro, hay que trabajar con cuidado. Por cierto, por si te interesa, acabo de sacar al mercado un curso en formato de vídeo, lo puedes ver en www.onlineguitarmakingcourse.com

Dear Pablo, I would like to know how you achieve the continuous back stripe through the heel section. Thank you.

[@redkitekk]

Hi Jim, when I glue the to sections for the back I also glue in the strips for the center as if everything was sandwiched together. When I cut the profile of the back I include the shape of the heel so when I fit the back on it covers the heel as well, that way the lines of the back can go all the way from heel to bottom. I hope this helps.

[@tirtaadisurya4570]

hi pable, is it wrong that i make the neck finished first then attaching the body and the neck after it? im too scared to damaging the body when shaping the neck

[@redkitekk]

I wouldn't say that it is wrong, if it works for you and you are able to have the correct thickness on the neck once the guitar is built thats all that matters. There are many ways of doing the same job.

[@tirtaadisurya4570]

thanks pablo. the way youre telling the step is easy to understand, i wish i can learn more about guitar building from you
