LEON JIMENES # 007



This build, an acoustic three stringer was made for a friend of mine as a gift. This will be the first of my builds to leave my hands... Since he is a huge Traveling Wilburys fan, I used this as the theme/tribute. Also, on this build I made the fretts go to the 14th rather than the 12th as seen on previous builds. The LEON JIMENES NO. 1 box was very light & unfinshed. After applying the Wilburys graphics, several coats of polyurethane was applied. Strung up with some light Martin strings (D,G,B), she produced a nice acoustic tone.
