@petersoyanov There is loads of stuff on eBay for pickup winding. A friend of mine is developing a winder but he is still waiting on a digital counter he ordered weeks ago. I think it’s from China and...

@simon1138 Also, if you get through to the end of a build without catastrophe, you end up with a decent guitar to play. Have a go! Glue together some bits of 4x2 or 6x2 or anything you have and then ...

@simon1138 Thank you, it’s good to see people being inspired by what I’m doing, I never thought that would happen. The good thing is about using pallet wood/scrap wood is that you can try out lots of ...

@tv1010101 Oh I’m pleased that I am inspiring people, that makes me feel good, thank you. You really should get into making your own necks, it’s a great achievement and not really that difficult. Go f...

@tv1010101 Thank you very much sir, I appreciate the kind words. I agree about the plain ones, I think traditionally people like them for their simplicity. I have made many Teles now and I think I’ve ...

It’s all starting to come together and looking better than I thought it would, even though I say so myself. Attachment : EFBD6946-1A41-4AF5-9762-15E3FD5179A4.jpeg Attachment : CF6E9EB3-E13C...

Bridge on, alignment check and pickup placement before drilling the holes. Making a left handed guitar is very confusing the first time you do it but I’m getting there. Attachment : BD1ABA28-EACC...

Posted by: @ @darrenking I think they sound good and perfectly serviceable. Everything is worth challenging and softwoods may not be quite as good as hardwoods, they are perfectly acceptable for the...

@robin Yes I’ve had that problem before, I bought a much bigger piece of Perspex to solve the problem. I look forward to seeing how this project of yours turns out, I love reusing/repurposing wood (or...

@david-johnson09 Thanks Deej ?

@robin That is some nice routing, very neat.

These look amazing Bill, I’ll investigate further. Thanks.

Posted by: @ I agree with you here @darrenking. I am used to multi tasking online and enjoy listening to Mark talk and demonstrate but it’s also beneficial, I think, for everyone to get their though...

@darrenking Could you make me a set of master templates for routing a guitar body please? I have made a 1:1 drawing so could send it you. it’s for this body shape. Attachment : 71969EF1-8C3C-417...

Posted by: @ @darrenking That is a great idea as well as being amusing! Now we have an actual reuse for polystyrene! ?

Thanks Darren, very kind of you, much appreciated. Here is another headstock shape I came up with. The neck is Cherry and the fretboard is Ebony. It’s also a Fender style, parallel headstock but I’m u...

More carving or this scarf neck, fretboard now on. I marked out the material to remove, just to help me visualise it. Attachment : 7382BED1-F713-4D12-9D45-57CBC5CCDA8D.jpeg Attachment : EA7...

Thanks @russ for your kind words. I have about five going at the moment and more to come. Some are necks for existing bodies and some I will be making bodies for as well. So all the necks in this pict...

Very clever and very impressive work @darrenking , well done sir! I look forward to your website, keep us informed.

Posted by: @ @clinton Thanks man, it takes a while to set it up but once you have, the bearings keep the saw blade straight consistently and prevent any wearing. The bearings also act as a depth sto...
