#958- Clockmaker's Koa Tenor Guitar

This guitar is for Lizann, whose father and grandfather’s shop and wood stash we have been cleaning out for several years. Every piece of wood on this guitar comes from her! The Koa is from a unit of wood her grandfather bought to make clocks from. The Wenge is a hard and dark tropical wood that is well suited for fretboards and trim. The neck is some Mahogany and Maple scraps. I really like the sound of this instrument, mellow but articulate. I also really liked how the sprout inlay worked out for the headstock. Thanks Lizann!
