A Guitar Called Jack--Part 19

Installing the guitar back - looks a lot like the previous shots of installing the soundboard. The back is lying in the 12" radius dish, which is lined with newspaper (we wouldn't want to glue the guitar to the dish). Glue is applied to the edge of the sides, the end of the neck block and tail block. The sides are then lowered onto the guitar back. Finally, clamps are applied to the neck block and tail block areas, and go-bars are applied around the edge of the soundbox (which is protected with plywood cauls - so that the go-bars do not dent the soundbox).
