OK - so the bits are starting to fall into place, and I think it's time to start planning my Ardent build:T
Inspiration thread: https://www.htguide.com/forum/showth...sign-and-Build
It's in good time, if you look back I actually started planning my first Avalon clone build a loooong time ago (as commented in the thread https://www.htguide.com/forum/showthread.php?3430-M8ta-Fun-or-Work-) from 2003)
I had a chat with the missis today, showed her the Ardents, as well as Jons Bonnie and Clyde (to show how Bamboo speakers looks).
She had decided that I will go down the same route that Jon followed and have Bamboo as the final finish - no veneering.
Of course, if I mess up (and that's quite likely), I can still apply veneer afterwards
I don't think it will take me another 10 years++ to get the actual build started and completed - but don't expect any lightning speed on this build. I'm in it for the fun of it and stuff will happened when it happens 8).
