Prairie Custom Guitars

I have had these two ash boards in my shop for quite a while

They are both cutoffs from other ash builds

The grain really doesn't match so I decided to plane them down and cap them

They are pretty heavy so I figured I better chamber it

Nothing major,just wanted to lighten it up a bit

 Now,what to cap it with

I have lots of maple sets here

But.....

I also have a couple sets of Lacewood I got for a good

price because there was a big crack in it

I managed to get 2 sets out of it,let's use one

I glued it up,routed it and cut out an f-hole

This stuff is not real nice to work with,kinda splintery(is that a word?)

This set has kind of an ugly on the front edge but most of it

will be gone after I cut the neck pocket

Out with the clamps

OK,time to take the daughter fishing

 I will pull the clamps later

OK

Were back,too windy and too many people

We will try again tomorrow

I was gone long enough for my glue to dry

Pulled the clamps,cleaned it up a bit and did the roundover

Then I sanded it to 220 and wiped it down to get 

rid of the dust.Now what to do with it
