Hi guys,
I just finished another squareneck reso, a single cone spider one, using the same mold I used for my tricone:
Wood is high grade tasmanian blackwood for top-back-sides, maple bindings and cocobolo fretboard
I reshaped the nut a little since I took the pictures, but I couldnt wait more 5 monthes of intensive work (It took me 3 weeks to bend the back to shape)
And I'm really happy with the sound, recorded just after I strung it. Cone and spider are Beard ones.
