I decided to make a second travel guitar. I have so much pine that I am going to make a travel guitar with pine back and sides as well as the one I started with Oak back and sides. I am going to put nylon strings on the all pine travel guitar and steel strings on the oak and pine travel guitar. I will have to brace them differently, and I am not going to put a pickup in the pine, nylon string guitar. So I found a piece of pine that was very much quarter sawn, and repeated the process of resawing the sides, thicknessing them to .090", bending them, and gluing on the kerfing. I made them 1/2" taller to give a little more volume and bass than the oak, steel string guitar.
