Hmmmmm
I can start to see why OSB is not used for building guitars
We seem to have run into a problem
I'm not sure if it is all the wet weather we have been having or what.This thing was nice and flat to start with.Maybe it has been all the re-finishing this poor thing has went through,not sure.
We seem to have developed a cup in the body.



Like I said I am unsure what made it do this..I am sure I could put a neck on it and it would be playable.The center seems flat still,just the wings have seemed to "Fly south"
Kind of a let down.Maybe I should park my truck on it for a couple days
I am still going to finish it.Even if it just gets used as conversation piece.The neck pocket is still nice and flat.

Ironically,the other one that is all OSB,except for the ash strip is still as flat as a pancake.Mind you it was sealed with lots of lacquer before the wet weather hit
