Lois & Jerry’s Psaltery
Here is another psaltery I am working on, with the back and sides made of black walnut.
The bookmatched Walnut looks great, with a lot of character. The hard maple binding has not yet been added, but you can still see that this will be a handsome psaltery.
So far I just have the frame and the back assembled. I still have to finish the top and trim, etc.
