RE: Robin's build #002

RE: Robin's build #002

@robin Good luck. Repairs and restorations are about deceiving the eye, so straight lines don’t always have to be at 90 deg they can be at an angle to match grain lines.

RE: Robin's build #002

Thanks for the advice @Rocknroller912, I've plenty maple offcuts and it's not really in a conspicuous place so the bigger bit that I cut out will be mostly hidden inside the neck pocket.

RE: 60's Telecaster build - Which pickups?

The saw needs to be quite tight in the rollers or it can go off 90 deg. I’m assuming you have the fretboard stuck with double sided tape to the metal scale. I also use wooded wedges between the wood a...
