What a beautiful walnut guitar with the curly maple binding. That's all I will say for today--just remember this image and stay tuned for "A Guitar Called Jack--Part 50." The weeks since I started this Blog have flown by, as time does, and today it is considered that the finish on this guitar is sufficiently cured for Gerry to again start the process moving forward. I do not know how long it takes to complete any of the steps that follow, but hopefully I will as we press forward. Gerry has been so great at keeping me informed of where we are all during this build. And just before closing off for today, I would like to congratulate our friend Gord who is the most recent owner of a fine Xaver hand crafted guitar. He is taking delivery tomorrow or the next day, and is the proud owner of an El-rosewood Mini-Jumbo which may be seen on the Xaver guitars web site. Too bad for anyone who had their eye on this beautiful guitar, but the good news is that there are others available, or, like me, if you can stand the pressure of the wait, Gerry will build you the guitar of your dreams.
