What a thrill for any musician: playing a fine-sounding instrument that
he or she has lovingly crafted from scratch. With this richly
illustrated manual, well-known luthier and guitarist John Bogdanovich
shows exactly how to build that first, beautiful guitar, using
traditional, time-tested methods. All that’s required are basic
woodworking techniques and a minimally equipped shop. Bogdanovich
discusses the anatomy of the guitar, sound, choosing an instrument,
selecting woods, templates and molds, and preparation. In more than 300
pages of text, he painstakingly lays out the details of construction,
from assembling the neck and sides to installing the fingerboard and
bridge.
