Eric with Instruments

I am showing my instruments at Marylhurst University on April 28th and 29th from 12-5 on both days. If you are in the Portland area, come by and say hi. There will be a lot of luthiers showing their work.

Beginning of lute rose

Beginning of lute rose

This is the preliminary cut from the back to the front. A paper pattern is glued on the back of the spruce and a very sharp knife is used to cut out the pattern. This is a piece of Engelmann spruce that I have already planed down to a specific thickness. It is less than 2 mm in thickness and the part where the rose is cut has been reduced to about 1 mm.

rebuilding a previous guitar

rebuilding a previous guitar

Here are the sides from the old guitar with a new European spruce soundboard. I will re-use most of the parts from the old guitar but, the top splintered upon removal and ended up unusable. The back and sides are a Mexican Rosewood known as Palo Escrito.
