Ken_N Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 I like how you copied it, but didn't try to copy the varnish. Highly flamed wood is enough. I'm glad you showed the picture of the original scroll. Then I saw the very very tiny pin dot on the scroll that you made, and I saw what Urban Luthier was talking about! I sure didn't see it. I turned back pages to find another photo! Ahh. I see you can tap on it, and get it to go huge. No one needs to see my work that large and in your face.

Do you copy the pin because you think it is original or do you copy it because it is there, though probably a later alteration? Or, I would definitely not do it if strings are not running about other pegs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
