Title: The Hen House(Updated)
Post by: TRKYHTR on October 21, 2012, 11:51:10 AM

I tried a new design with my checkering. It looked like a house so I am calling it the "Hen House". This is a Honduran Mahogany box with a walnut lid and bottom. What do you think?

It works for me...Joe, do you think it affected the sound more or less from your regular Cost style checkering?

I thought it might being so close to the top but it didn't affect it. I will post a soundfile later.

Joe you have a better balance in sound on both rails in this call.  Tuning must be coming along or the Mahogany is forgiving--good work.
