Here is a fun Cub that I thought I'd share. When I was cutting the wood for my Coronet, the leftover piece was the perfect size for one of my Cubs. I grabbed my template and the rest is now history.

Thanks all Smile

Thats one of my mirror gloss Tru Oil finishes. They are time consuming and a pain to do, but really bring out the beauty in a piece of wood. Here are a couple low angle shots that show the high polish a bit better.

Tell me about your fret markers. They look sharp.

Thanks Steve and Andy Smile

Steve ... its an A3 BG-Pups Rockwind.

Andy ... I made the fret markers out of .020" sheets of HIPS plastic laminated together, then cut into strips. The dots are HIPS too. Those white surrounds for the dots were a royal pain.
