No apology necessary Mark, best wishes and take as long as you need.

Yes please Darren, I would love one!

@tv, could be. I made the neck pocket template quite long. I then put the neck in position and the fit the neck pocket jig over the top and slid it ba...

Well done Cheesewhisk, looks great so far.

Thanks again, I will get some pics when I get some proper time in the Garage, I’ll be working in the garden this week I reckon.

There’s loads on flea bay I’ll give that a try, but thanks all.....might try and bandsaw my own!

Thanks Tv haven’t measured but I’d be surprised if it’s as much as .5mm either side.

Take all the time you need, we’ll still be here with lots of questions I am sure. Best wishes.

Darren that is one good looking guitar. The fit looks great and the attention to detail is fantastic - well done. Yeah go for Pink that'll suit it!

That’s a nice looking guitar, well done.
