I put on some danish oil for the back this weekend and it made the grain pop like crazy and I am in love with this thing!!

It’s starting to come together and look like an actual instrument!! Gotta finish the bridge, which I am making needlessly complicated (of course).

Saturday is workshop day and I’ve been hard at work on my telecaster bouzouki (or telezouki, If you will). Inlays done today- they’re not perfect, but I’m proud of them anyways! Maybe I’ll get to install frets next week? We’ll see!

The Kitsune - my modern take on a shamisen, my first (of hopefully many) instrument projects!
