[#3 - Relief]

That's it ! Next step if french polish, but I could not wait more to ear it.
Thanks again to the @ecolenationaledelutherie allowing me to create this beauty, that marks the end of my journey as a guitar maker student.

[#2 : Espoir - Hope]

Some months ago, I had some hard times while glueing my fingerboard. A slight measurement error led to an off-centered fingerboard.
I was lucky enough to check this few minutes after the clamping.
It allowed me to succesfully remove the fingerboard from the neck, and to save both with some sanding.

It is important to share our success, but it is also interesting to see mistakes, we are human after all !

Thx again @j.perreault_guitars by helping me this saturday, I think you remember it as well 😅

I enjoy decorating the inside of the box of this project, because of the two opening.

The future owner will have the chance to see from the soundport and the offset soundhole some color 💚

Finally back at school ! The end of the last session was so intense that I didn't even have the time to take some pictures 😆
Here is the head's design of my first acoustic guitar.
I still have to work on the symmetry, but I'm so happy about the Ovangkol / mapple joint, was hard to adjust 😅

[ #1 : Amorce / Primer ]

Finally, after nearly 2 years, Amorce is finished !

I'm very pround and excited every time I play it.
Her strenghts are clearly high pitched notes, the power and the sustain are pretty remarkable, while mediums and basses still sound balanced 😁

Available for sell, she is waiting her new home and owner ! 🥰
