Charles Obscure Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 That looks sweet! Some folks would rather have real f-holes, like the axe murderer who did this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWANG Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I'd get that to a luthier and have him recut those f holes. and bind them. you'd think he would have quit after the first one. I can see him now. guitar on the floor.. knee on the bridge... jigsaw in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheX Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 A dremel would definitely do it but I've been using/carving with one for well over 20 years. In the wrong hands you could end up as injured as that guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least one could of done was spend the time to make a patteren so it would of at least matched.
