Visit to Tibor Sörös and Ernie Schmidt
Tibor's comments
- need to be much more careful of smoothness
- profile is
not consistent, particularly in top - i.e. sharp rise from edge, flattens out and then rises
again
- edge of instrument (purfling area) is too low - should be less deep compared to
main body and edge
- corners too short at "C" bouts
- curve of neck at body is
wrong - should be in line with ribs at that point, then curve into neck
- fingerboard not
flush with edges of neck
- scroll should be more pronounced and undercut on volute
- arc of edge esp. at bottom front is inconsistent
- broken rib should not have been
used.
Ernie's comment: nice work
