Cool to see the process. Thanks for posting the pics.
it kinda makes me wonder though, why wouldn't you just have him build you a guitar? Seems like there is a lot of work going into this.

great and exciting project.
Do you know how Florian peeled off the fretboard that clean?
Posts from a few years ago show removing a couple of frets near #20 and 22, drilling a small hole and injecting steam for several minutes, to loosen it. Then a special planing tool with a handle on either end is run between the board and the neck to get the rest off.
Search "bavarian" on here.
frets before inlays? interesting.
You never know how how a guitar will sound until it's all set up. That's the risk you take when building guitars.
You still have risks on makeovers, but when you know a guitar already sounds good, that's hard to change
Now the fretboard is bound with Cellulose nitrate
