Diana’s “Phoenix” Dreadnought

Status: FINISHED!

This guitar is now finished!
See a test drive of the finished product here.

This is  the guitar I’m making now for my sister-in-law, Diana.  She requested a “big, honkin’ guitar” so I am making her a dreadnought.  The back and sides are blackhearted sassafras from Tasmania (so I am told), and the top is sitka spruce with a walnut burl soundhole ring.  The bindings will also be walnut as will the neck.  The peg head will have a gold mother-of-pearl inlay of a phoenix, thus the “Phoenix” Dreadnought.
