Visit to my luthier friend

[Alan Morrison]

My friend Sam runs a school of Lutherie near me and he allows me to plunder his scrap bin.
https://www.laganlutherieschool.org/gallery. He gets students from all over the world.
I took some photographs while there as well as some items that were surplus. The photographs show a couple of students with their projects. The rosette is of spalted maple. A couple of photos showing what I brought home.

Beautiful rosette . Doesn`t look like you will need to do any more plundering for a while .

Looks like a fun day!! Curious…in pic 5, that Ovation seems out of place on the wall. Is it there for repair or similar?

That trip was just before having to go shopping with my wife. You need some little counter-balances in life.

This is where I built my acoustic bass guitar a few years back.
