Before I could glue these peices together I had to attach the bridge which holds the strings in place. I drilled six holes in it, and glued a very small wooden peice with 6 notches in it on to hold the strings in place. Most of these peices on other brand guitars are plastic, but mine was wood to give it a mellow tone. I measured all the distances and marked the exact location of where the bridge should go. Then I glued the bridge to the board and fastened an oak brace on the opposite side to stableize the guitar from literally ripping apart under the tension of the strings. Shown above is a side view of the guitar.
