- In this video I show how to cut the slot to later on fit a tapered end inlay at the bottom of the guitar where the two sides meet. Part 2 of this video showing how to fit the inlay will come soon.

Invaluable instructional videos on guitar building. The best on CZcams of this type. Many thanks Pablo
Excellent video and process
Hola Pablo,buena video, gracias! y feliz fiesta!
Thanks for your videos!
great video
Pablo . Hola . I find using a mini hand router with a 1/4in bit from L/N is very handy for cleaning up the cavity , prior to inlaying
I was holding my breath throughout the chiseling part. I always find this part pretty stressful hehe
Beautiful job Pablo.
Thank you, señor Pablo. Very well done and explained, as always. You got me the insight of a variation of this approach. I thought I could glue the sides into the end block with a tapered filler in place, made of some engineering plastic (PFTE, PU, PE, PP, etc) and attached to the end block with double-sided tape, in a way it would be easily peeled off before installing the definitive end inlay. I thought that even if the side edges end up with a non perfect straight line (it probably would), which would lead to undesireable end inlay fitting gaps, one could cut the lines with the saw the way you showed, but resulting in a much narrow strip of wood to remove with the chisel, after peeling off the plastic filler. I'm not sure I made myself clear, but if so, what do you think about it?
Pablo, thank your for another excellent presentation. Do you ever use a small router plane instead of a chisel to do this job?
I am about to execute your method on a guitar I am building. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Link to PART 2:
What this wood in the sides?
