When I arrived at the shop today Sean had proceeded to put this copper spunover together. We were so anxious to hear what it sounded like we threw a set of strings on it prior to finishing, We built up 6 similar rims yesterday (All 12" diameter rims). This particular rim has a single ply cherry insert. The neck is a 26.25" scale length constructed of walnut and a black pear wood center ply. Tone ring is a raw brass Dobson ring and the hardware is all raw brass. As per the sound, lets say we were not disappointed. In fact it sounds fantastic! As soon as we get it apart and lacquer applied, we'll post a sound clip. Also thinking of installing a real calf head. Also thinking of trying some antique solution on the next rim.
