corey5150 Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Could someone create a tutorial on how to create an archtop? I have tried searching but I couldn't find anything. I want to try it on my next project... ...either in that color or in a purple stain but arched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Alex Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 you mean a carved top, archtops are precisely carved, inside and out, acoustic instruments. and there already is a tutorial: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=16098 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 You realize that guitar has a carved top right? You can see the reflection of the carve in both pictures. If you want to build a true "archtop," which is hollow, has a carved, front, back, and inside, and has bent sides, then that's a whole different animal. BTW, we're only supposed to have 1 image per post. Try to stick to that rule or some people will become quite perturbed(I couldn't care less, honestly). If you are just set on being a rebel though, at least use thumbnails. No one seems to mind those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
