Mockingbird p9

I'm not feeling particularly chatty today, so here's the quick version:

The cypress just wasn't working out in the painting stage. The wood between the growth rings was simply too soft and wouldn't sand smooth - always ripply. So I scrapped the old body and made a new one from mahogany & cherry. These are the progress shots, Also included are a couple shots of the finished headstock.

Right now, the body is being grainfilled and sealed up with sanding sealer.
