@liebe It’s gone really well for you hasn’t it, they look great. I’m definitely going to try this finishing product out. I’m a spray guy as you know but these results are proving that great finishes c...

Very nice work indeed. I’ll say what I always say when I see an acoustic build, one day I must have a go at building an acoustic. However, I’m always scared because I know how obsessed I am with makin...

@clinton Always good to see your builds and this is no exception. Does all the hardware pop off when it gets angry? 💚😡

OK, I've just finished making yet another custom Tele type, so here is my latest creation. Its for an old friend of mine that I used to be in a band with many moons ago. He is a left handed player so...

@julioherrera That is great feedback Julio, thanks so much. I’ll have a word with my client and so just how wide he thinks wide is for him. I think you are right also about the radius, I was thinking...

OK all you Fender experts out there. I’ve got someone who wants me to make him a Tele with very simple spec BUT has specified a wide neck. Does anyone know if there is a recognised wide size for a Te...

@nsj 😆😆😆😆😆😆 That’s one way around it I suppose.

@somethingnicer Yeah exactly that, don’t take the neck out. 😆 Yeah, take the bridge and all the other hardware off and prep the hell out of anything you want paint to stick to. Definitely mask...

@nsj Yeah, I probably would have got it more accurate in the first place but I had already drilled the holes for a standard neck plate and fitted the neck. I then changed my mind and went with the fer...

I have done it both ways. It’s certainly easier to paint the neck and body apart, before gluing them together. However, you must mask off the neck heal very accurately and the same with the neck pocke...

@nsj Yeah I realise a dremmel would be perfect for the job but I don’t have one. 😆 It’s probably about time I got one. The idea of sandpaper around a socket was just to solve the problem with ...

There are probably better tools for this job but if you haven't got them and you are in a bind, then try this. I used a Forstner drill bit to create a recess for some neck ferrules. They were slightly...

@russ Wow, that is a stunning picture. If you are down in Argyll again, you’ll be welcome here. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@nsj That is good news, can’t wait to try it now. Cheers. 👍

@nsj That is perfect, exactly the info I was looking for. I was just going to try it anyway using a rough and ready quick build and see how things went. I’ll go for it now then. Cheers Neil 👍

Most of the time there are multiple ways to fix a problem, a lot of the time there is at least one way to fix a problem, and there is very little of the time where problems can’t be fixed. Robin’s su...

@liebe Thanks for the input Dan, I appreciate it. It’s good to know, I’ll look into it further. 👍

Hello all, I wonder if anyone could answer this question please. Is it possible to use a Floyd Rose trem on a shorter scale electric guitar such as a 25” or 24.75”? I used to play with a guitar wi...
