Featuring “Bung” tone and volume knobs and a Bubinga fingerboard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50d83e0de4b0c2f4975b7807/11ae9237-b2d7-4897-8395-fa199f8311c3/image0.jpg The Barrel Stave Guitar - Make it stand out The back of the instrument is arched and bowed on two planes to maintain the barrel look, achieved by a double layer of ply, the first being pinned with dowels to hold the shape. Subsequent instruments will either be veneered or use a finer grade of wood. This is a rough sketch of how it worked out. After glueing the top staves together, the back was thinned down to loose a bit of weight. This left a rough surface, which could have been sanded back, but there would have been a problem with the exposed Tone and Volume circuit. various options were considered, including boxing . The solution presented itself when thinking about adding a finished piece of ply to the back, (to save all that sanding!) which, if not completely fixed to the back of the staves, but only attached to the edge, would result in a shallower curve, thus creating a cavity between the two surfaces. In order to stabilise the outer ply surface and stop it flexing, and provide a stable fixing point for a bolt on neck, a series of short dowels were inserted through holes drilled in the ply and glued in place. This proved a success and the back was now rigid. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50d83e0de4b0c2f4975b7807/af05ff79-d986-494a-88a9-1a135f312c1c/IMG_2348.jpg The Barrel Stave Guitar - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/50d83e0de4b0c2f4975b7807/a34b7e47-431e-408b-9da9-94182c38efd8/My+Sketches+10+-+2023-10-27+10.54.49.551.jpg The Barrel Stave Guitar - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. http://www.levens.co.uk/golden-plank daily 0.75 2026-04-02
