Home made Archtop body project similar to L5, that I picked up in a sale. non functioning, incomplete and needs a lot of work. Two piece Maple back and sides, solid spruce top, about 21" long, 17" wide bout, 10.5" wide waist, 12.5" wide shoulder, 3.25" wide rim.

Some dings, filler in rim, gaps & seams in purfling & binding, some spots have loose binding, large gap seems to have poor glue joint at rim to back and may need addressed, Parallel bracing for top

Obviously this needs a lot of work, but the majority of the construction is complete and with some elbow grease you can have a decent arch top body at a fair price. Great project for someone getting into building and/or repair.

This is being sold as is and there will not be any returns allowed on it. What you see is what you get. This is for the BODY ONLY, nothing else is included.

***Last four photos were added to show carve in top & back compared to straight edge ruler as some were questioning if it were flat.***

Shipping within continental USA only, buyer to pay shipping.

Please feel free to ask any questions.
