Warr Craft

Today I dropped off my Warr Guitar for the various changes I want to make. The local luthier doing the work is probably the best in the Northwest. I left him with extensive printed instructions of exactly what work I want done, along with diagrams (it’s impossible to remove my Project Manager hat…) and spent about 15 minutes walking him through it. And then I spent another 15 minutes shooting the breeze with him because he’s such an interesting guy.
Because one of the changes I’m making involves fabricating a new nut, which is typically made of bleached bone, the luthier will need to locate a fairly large segment of bone to use. This may delay the configuration of the instrument. Hopefully it’ll only take a week or so…
