Soundboard

I had to wait for some parts to come in from Luthier's Mercantile, like the rosette.
I'm in a hurry to build this guitar, so I'm not designing a custom one.
Here's the top with the rosette inlaid.




The other side of the top is the inside.  The X-brace is glued on as well as the bridge patch, which is the piece of veneer that is under the bridge.  Laid on that is a brace called a bass bar, and it provides additional stiffness on the side of the thick strings.
