Nice work there Robin, thanks for the suggestion, it’s one option I can’t claim credit for that work @boo , it’s a shop bought guitar from many years ago. I just showed it as an example, I can’t actually see…   Read more»

@boo  As an example, my Tanglewood Tomkat has a little fillet at the neck join.

@boo    Could you clean off the sharp edges and put a small fillet around the joint, maybe an epoxy filler, then paint it again.

Great work as always @boo, that’s pretty black!
I noticed that you have one of the newer THR 10’s, is that a II or III and how do you like it? I’ve had the 10X for years and I love it.

@boo Thx 😊 

Be as rude as you like @boo , can’t hide from being old, start collecting my state pension next year.

You could then get a cheap season ticket @robin. 🤣⚽ 
🙏🎸🙂🎶

I could crack an obvious joke about age here but I wouldn’t be so rude to you Robin.

@russ Yep, you are 3rd on the leaderboard and you haven’t even built a guitar yet.

I know @boo. It’s ridiculous 😲. I keep saying watch this space but………. “keep watching this space”. 🤞😂🤣
🎸🙏🎶🙂

@warmvalves Thanks very much for the info, much appreciated Hi @boo. When you move to Scotland……. and if you’re not too far from Glasgow……and if you’ve got the time……you could apply for their Full Time Stringed Instrument Making courses to…   Read more»

@Boo, wow man that looks absolutely stunning! Great job from the paint master! 👍 🤩 

Well @boo that came out looking great! The white pu covers definitely fit, too bad J bass knobs aren’t available in white but I know a guy who can paint them… 😉😂

You never cease to amaze me @boo. Another great job. I like the Wilkinson bridge too. 
🙂🙏🎸🎶

Very sorry for your loss @boo… how’s your wife holding up?

@mattbeels Thanks Matt, she’s doing ok, life goes on. 👍

Top job @robin, that came out great! I really like the offset shape and neck joint, the color looks fab as well! How does it play and sound?

Thanks for the eencouragement @boo , I’m not going to tamper with it and risk spoiling the finish that I’ve got. The next project is still a block of wood at the moment, so the decision to oil or lacquer…   Read more»

@boo I’m alright, thanks. You? Pretty busy with the shop so that’s fine (except for…) Yeah, he doesn’t know yet. Fortunately it’s an aftermarket body with a shitty white paint job so hiding it won’t be too difficult. I’ll tell…   Read more»

1mm at a time right? You know me too well @boo which is exactly why I took your advice and walked away. 

Thanks @boo   I can see small swirly scratches shining through the lacquer when I turn it in the sunhine, I don’t know if these would polish out or not but I think I’m going to leave it as it is,…   Read more»

@boo
Another top job. I noticed you have a heady 14.3 deg temperature, hope you’re not expecting it to be as warm as that when you move North.

@boo Cutting a recess in the plate was pretty much the first thing I thought. Although, I want to keep the size of it in case I need to use it for a bigger project.  @robin Somehow that never occurred…   Read more»
