Andy’s hybrid archtop is completed!
Now if, you’ve seen my demo videos, you’ll know that I’m not the person to bring out the best in an instrument. Fortunately, a local guitar player, Alan came over to put the archtop through its paces, playing a couple of jazz standards for me. The guitar really came alive and you can see (hear) for yourself in the video. Hope you like it....
Having built this hybrid archtop, I’m tempted to build another, this time with “f” holes. I’m trying to build one instrument for fun each year- last year was the “Red Mandolin” this year the parlour, so next year maybe another archtop.................now where’s that set of quilted maple?
