Ok, now it's time to add the spruce bassbar. I chalk-fit it perfectly using dark brown conté and I don't stop trimming and scraping until it fits 100% and there is an even transfer of chalk from the top to the bar when clamped. This takes hours -- sometimes three or four -- sometimes eight or ten.
After it is glued in, the shavings fly and I get the satisfaction of big, picturesque curls of spruce. Sweet.
