Turned a Gretsch 125 clone into a 175 recently. Gentleman was having arthritis and couldn’t get around on the upper frets but loved his guitar, so I added a cutout and gave him some more room to play on his baby.

Will damas make all three images load? Let’s find out together. Thought I’d share and help #grownoster with some #music and #woodworking

Ya. Mostly the fiddles. Guitars are sorta new to me, so this was an adventure. The guy wanted to keep the original binding. The transition didn’t bother me til now I keep seeing my work on the web. 😒
