Full guitar build video // florentine cutaway acoustic

It took me 10 months to build the guitar shown in the video, which is 8 months faster than my first guitar build, which you can watch here: • Full Guitar Build Vide...
This guitar is a Martin OM inspired guitar with a florentine cutaway. I learned how to do the florentine cutaway from Robbie O'Brien's online course at:
www.lutherieacademy.com
My goals for this build were:
1. Learn how to make a florentine cutaway
2. Design and make a custom rosette instead of using a pre-made one
3. Design and make a custom bridge instead of using a Martin-style one
I accomplished all 3 goals, although not without issues! If you would like to see what the issues are, there is a 13 part series of this whole build where I talk about each step. This video is just a compilation of all the mostly non-talking parts of those 13 other separate videos.
Here is the first video of that 13 part series:

This is VERY helpful! I am on my first build and I am agonizing over everything so much that I have continual analysis paralysis and struggle to progress, even though I have been slowly building and acquiring tools and jigs for years now. It is AWESOME to see you moving right ahead and making steady progress with what you have. Excellent video skills! You made it look easy! Thank you!

Nice good equipment to built guitar.. I wish had it
What a lovely ring this guitar has. I was surprised at the tone , really nice. A good video to watch all the way through, i just wonder who will be playing this in say fifty years time and weather they will be aware of the care and time put in to produce it, i nust wonder if it will still hold that brightness of tone, thank for a good video.
Un gran trabajo 👏👏👏

At 1:56 I noticed you already glued the neck block to the cutaway side. This is a great idea as I too am building my first acoustic guitar from a kit and was wondering how on earth I was going to clamp that cutaway part (of the side) to the side of the neck block. I always figured that both the neck and tail block were supposed to be glued while the sides were placed inside the mold (that I purchased with my kit). Anyway … great idea! Thank you.

Thanks! It was a very enjoyable process. You should give it a go! Decide to do it and then come to terms in your mind with the fact that it will be a long process and be content with that. Start slow, buy the tools you need for just one step at a time. Though it may take quite a while (it was 18 months for my first one), by the end, you‘ve got a guitar and all the tools to make one. From there it‘s just a matter of getting better and upgrading tools and methods as you have the money to do so. I wish you good luck!!

Thanks for watching! I used ovangkol for the sides and back, torrefied spruce for the top, mahogany for the neck, indian rosewood for the bindings, fingerboard, bridge, and headplate. Bloodwood in a couple of spots, black acacia in a couple of spots, and padauk for the rosette.
I liked the series but this is super cool too! Great channel you are running, you make it look easy but I know it's not.
