Penny Guitars

I have removed as much as I think I can get away with on the neck. The neck width is 48.5mm wide and I can get to the sixth string with my thumb, I like to be able to use my thumb on some chords so it was important to trim the neck back as much as possible.
My style of playing the classical guitar requires me to need a scratch plate, well in fact three scratch plates.
I have taken the action down considerably and it is nice and easy to play. The error I made when fitting the fret board doesn’t seem to have caused any problems at all. There is no buzzing at any position on the fret board so I have not surfaced the frets with my stone as I usually would. It just plays well and sound nice. Here are a couple of pics.

I am playing it lots while it settles down and will put a sound file up for it as soon as I get the time to do that.

I say “semi-finished” because the neck is just roughly scraped and the nut has no string guides filed into it. Basically I need to do all the finishing touches.
I have made a mistake when gluing the fret board down, under the 4th, 5th and 6th frets the fretboard was not clamped down properly and there is a tiny gap that can not be glued down now because the glue that was on the under side of the fret board in that area is rock hard. I have a few options for solving the problem, first I can remove frets 2 to 7 and sand that area down a bit and refit the frets, second I could remove the whole fret board and fit a new one (I don’t want to do this one), third I can reduce the height of frets 4, 5 and 6, this idea is worth trying before doing the first option because if it doesn’t work I will be renewing those frets if I do have to do option 1.
Here are some pictures.

Now I am going to size the nut and string the guitar and see how it plays and if the error on the fret board is causing any problems.

I have done the binding and have been sanding the binding down all day, It is starting to look quite nice now. so here are some pics.

That is all for now.
