Yamamoto Jumbo Baritone Guitar - With Construction Pics!
 Solid AAAA Select Solid Koa that will be used for the back and sides. At this stage, naptha has been applied to give an idea of the "flame" that will appear when the guitar is finished. (That's the dark "swabbed" areas in the lower-left of the picture.) |
 Solid Adirondack Spruce sections fitted to create the top, and the top bracing (also Adirondack Spruce) has been installed to the underside of the top. |
 Component pieces that will make the final instrument. Note the Koa back pieces have been joined and braced. Well on the way! |
 Body complete, and neck fitted for measurements and placement of the bridge. Really starting to look like a guitar at this point! |
 Back of the instrument, with finish applied, ready for final buffing and detailing. |
 Yes yes! Solid, highly-flamed Koa! |
