@seth @robin yes please post a picture! Here are some photos of my neck pocket and cutaway showing how iv'e tried to blend in the step where I'd cut too far. I'd also taken a lump out of the outer...

If you're thinking of cutting the side lip where you've drawn the pencil line (ie extending the shape of the cutaway), then - on that side - you'll still have as much glued surface as on a typical dou...

@robin yes please post a picture! Yeah that’s what I’m leaning towards doing, im just wondering if it’s enough support after watching a repair video that had mentioned something about necks leaning t...

Hi Seth The question is should I leave it or cut it off? I'm maybe not the best person to answering you. My first build is also based on a les paul style. I had the opposite problem, I overdid the b...

So I realized this after cutting the neck slot on my LP style body that I shouldn’t have made it the same size as the neck, I should have made it more narrow and the cut a channel in the neck to go ov...

Just checked with the courier's tracking system @Boo - it's still "on its way" to you. Though I had something delivered today (same courier company) before they'd even told me that it was out for deli...

Like it a lot!

That is definitely a *very* nice piece of ebony @boo. I've got something like that on a fretboard on one of my guitars. Macassar ebony?

As I don't have too many amps (despite forgetting about the ones that I had!), another one turned up yesterday. Despite having a few, none of them are proper valve amps - they're all transistor amps w...

Forgot to say it sounds good quiet and loud and loud makes your fillings rattle, as well as the doors and windows.

@deej I need to retire. I can recommend retirement, I wish I'd done it sooner.

@tv101 I've got various bits of veneer here. I'd happily put a headstock-sized piece in the post for you. Light, or dark? That would be fantastic, a peice of dark please, it's a mahogany neck. I w...

work getting in the way again. I need to retire. You & me both @deej! I will reveal all soon Temptress!!

Just watching the catch up - work getting in the way again. I need to retire. anyway some news on the Deej guitars and hopefully getting back into it with a bonus for buyers. 🤫 I will reve...

@robin I could glue on a thicker piece then surface route it down to veneer thickness I'm just wondering ... you'd use the router to get yourself out of a problem situation that the router got you i...

I haven't got the equipment to make a veneer to cover the mess on my headstock, but I guess that I could glue on a thicker piece then surface route it down to veneer thickness.

Just watched the second half of today’s session on catch-up. Wow - that fretboard is looking stunning!!

@tv101 My First Gig was The Scorpions in the same year. Seems like yesterday. 🙏🎸😁🎶

I never saw Deep Purple live. 🙁 @russ. My first proper gig was Black Sabbath in 1979. Van Helen opened ....

@tv101 Excellent Tony. I never got a chance to see them first time around. I remember waiting what seemed like a lifetime for MK II to reform then luckily managed to see them on their reunion tour. I ...
