Construction started #14-15

This is a twin pair, Bouchet bracing, I am building for my dear friends, guitar duo Alexandra Petrisor and Dragos Horghidan. All wood, even the necks and fingerboards, is cut from the same log. To start with, here are the soundboards and backs, ready to be prepared for joining. I am particularly happy with the spruce (same I used for my successful #11), free of runout, very well quartered, even grained. The rosewood is glassy sounding, strong purple color.

One surprise is a new rosette design I drawn and which we eagerly anticipate seeing in real.
