Buffalo Tom's Guitar

First you have to make a template

Then you need a bending form for the sides

and a frame to hold the sides square

Here is pic of the back. This is Claro walnut from Northern California.

And then we bend the sides !

Buffalo Tommy Reno gets a new guitar

Here is Buffalo Tommy Reno, a true renaissance man ! He's a philosopher, musician, poet, humorist, cowboy and FORMER ladies man . His beautiful gal, Sacred Woman sent me some money to make a nice guitar for him ( Ladies take note the true way to mans heart is with a guitar and I can help.)
Buffalo Tom and I got together and started to design this new guitar and since it was a shape that I don't normally make I thought I would post the process for every one to watch.
