@tv101 Tagging@robin- and anyone else who fancies joining in! Thanks, I'll try to be there, my Internet has been a bit temperamental lately possibly due to the weather we're having, hopefully it'll ...

This is My Favourite Song For This Moment..... 🎸🎶🙂🙏

My favourite song today:

@boo I know this is hard to believe but I was chatting with Joni a few weeks ago on her fan page. I commented on her photo and she said message me direct, and we chatted for a while.

Tagging @robin - and anyone else who fancies joining in!

CherryRed delivered another batch of CDs last week. I’ll be working my way through them for a while, but I got stuck on this for a few repeat plays ... Catchy, early-80s, power-pop (with a curious vi...

@tv101 Thanks that sounds like a plan. My only comment is that if we are going to do video chat on Thursdays when Carol is not doing Bliss, then we should make a distinction between the two nights or...

@rocknroller912 @koendb @jamesbisset @boo @darrenking @Marcel I'll whatsapp SteeveeDee separately - not sure what his ID is on here? Reminder that we said we'd have a Guitar Builders' Jitsi at 8pm o...

@koendb There are some quick and easy methods of checking the neck angle to get the bridge height without using mm scales which are hard to read. I have a violin tool which is a ready guide but it wou...

Posted by: @clinton To open of a grain species? Exactly that, I think, @clinton. There's a lot more grain to fill compared to (eg) maple. Which is actually why I wanted Ash for this build - I want...

Join us on Jitsi @boo and you get to see the guitar too.

Posted by: @koendb Mark talks about 2mm clearance at the bridge position, mine is 2.8mm~3mm. Does that just mean that your saddle would be 1mm taller? I can't see that 1mm would make a huge differ...

That's some great neat and patient work Koen. Looks like a nice piece of rosewood for the sides - really strong purple-ish colour? This is my favourite pic so far ... Attachment : image.png ......

Today I spend most of my day cleaning my room and reorganizing my tools cabinets, but did find the time to also route the fretboard to size ( well, the width, not the length yet )Here's a mockup where...

Stunning pieces of timber there. Don't know whether they'd end up competing for attention with the guitar body, and whether that would detract from the stunning-ness of the fretboard?

Posted by: @boo I agree with your thoughts on playability as well, it could get very confusing. I think that it would not matter if you make sure you have contrasting side dots, or make the side do...
