Not a phrase that I'm familiar with @Marcel, so I thought I'd Google it ... Attachment : bass solo.jpg No results found ????

My favourite song today, well it's acually two songs, by my all time favourite Dutch band Alquin. With a really great bass solo in the first song.

Hi, I'm Sanjeev Mansotra new member of this community. Since childhood, I have loved to create things once I created a guitar with cardboard. What are the easiest steps to create a guitar? What size s...

The easiest and fastest way to make a guitar of your own would probably be to sign up for the course "Build you own electric guitar" on this site. I did that and followed the detailed instructions wh...

@tv101 This is not helpful at all, but I read the subject as "Completely Nuts" at first. I should use my compensated reading glasses, i suppose. 😀

Who's used them, have you found them to be more accurate? As part of my on-going Taylor GS-mini set-up project, I've been watching a few YT videos (none involving cats), including one from a guy who w...

I might - just as a challenge for the CNC. From what I've seen, their shims are made to fractions of a mm, and have to be fitted as a matching pair. It'd be an interesting challenge to see how close...

😆 Not so local Koen - unless you're planning on taking your latest wow creation on a European (and, post-Brexit, non-European) tour?? 😉 If you've got a Taylor, their CS (based in Netherlands) ...

YOU are your local Koendb's authorised service center 😉

You could just make the shims yourself anyway and keep the Taylor supplied shims as a plan B ? That's what I would do 🙂

I did think about it @robin - always an option - but as Taylor offered to send me a pack of alternative shims, I didn't need to. I've had very good experience from Taylor Customer Service before too, ...

Well, I can't play very well, I 'll try to find a piece I can learn quickly and play it as soon as I can, but in the meanwhile, this is how it is supposed to sound like if someone with proper playing ...

If you've got the time, money and wood @tyreman then go for it. It's all about learning and trying things out. For the proportions, you could be right in trying it with the longer strat style body. &...

there was cool one that ben crowe made of crimson guitars where he made a 12 string with a rickenbacker inspired headstock, not sure if I like it, but it is good for saving space.

I agree with you, the weight being a primary issue with the longer headstock, I also think it would suit a strat style 12 string better than a tele style, thanks for the feedback.

@robin I agree with you robin, it's been holding me back a bit but now I can continue with the real build, I will go with the 6 x 6 headstock.

@tyreman I like the idea of a straight string pull, thats what I try to do with the six string headstock design that I use. But, I do agree with the other guys that it looks out of proportion.

@tv101 Be interesting to see how the shims work when the arrive Are you not tempted to cnc your own shims?
