The center pieces were not long enough for a tall heel cap. So I nixed it, it will be separate, but dark wood. I showed this on my facebook page and some retired English guy in Spain who I did not even know picked a fight over whether or not a flamenco guitar could be made with any wood other than Palo Santo or Cypress. I tried to humor him, but he kept insulting me and saying dumb cliche stuff like "Real pros in Spain smell the guitar and if it does not smell of Cypress they reject it." "Only cypress makes a flamenca." So I looked at his profile page and sure enough, retired engineer who took up guitar making, and retired to Spain, I knew it. So instead of suffering his foolish amateur opinions I just straight up blocked him. Theres really nothing worse in guitar making than an engineer who's made two guitars who feels entitled to 'mansplain' the art to others. So rather put up with it and wait for him to make ten more guitars and watch his world of smugness crumble, I decided to cut out the cancerous tissue and not ever have to see his stupid face on facebook. So if you see me on facebook and we don't really like one another its cool, but if you see my stuff and I see yours, you're not blocked and that it means you're no fool.
