Fleta1408, Fingerboard and freting.

J. Bertholdo    December 14, 2015 October 13, 2017    No Comments on Fleta1408, Fingerboard and freting.

This is some  of the work in progress. An archtop guitar, a baroque guitar, a violin bow and a violin, among others things. I will post the development of each instrument individually  when I’m work on each one.
