@clinton I have used Bareknuckle humbuckers so far and they are just wonderful. In my red and pink striped Bandsman I’ve got Bareknuckle Rebel Yell humbucker in red and pink bobbins. (See pic) In ...

Posted by: @clinton Bare knuckle pickups are really something else. Wow! @clinton You have Bareknuckle pickups in this guitar? Aren’t they absolutely magnificent? I love them too. It’s only in recen...

Posted by: @petejb I can plane the neck blanks after splitting in tow. Just hope that losing 3/16-1/8 of an inch or doesn't kill me on the thickness required. Will it? The blanks are actually 4 3/16 ...

Posted by: @petejb Given the obscene price of wood I have decided to do a trial run using hard pine (actually something knot-less, LOL) or something like that. @petejb Yeah, nothing wrong with doing...

@clinton You never, ever let us down man. That is another beauty.

Posted by: @dirtbike I ended up going for a 2nd hand Bosch POF1400ACE @dirtbike Good on ya!

Posted by: @petejb Yeah, I figured it out. It is a smaller body guitar but given this is my true first under expert instruction that's an advantage IMO. Nice craftsmanship by the way! Very impressive...

@petejb Yep, building guitars is one of a few things that keeps me going and semi sane. I’m juggling a lot of things in life right now but it’s all good stuff, it’s just taking a lot of work to get th...

Posted by: @petejb First of all, the wood supplier chalked a Fender Jazz Bass on the blank @petejb Pete, the Bandsman body size is not that big, I just printed the pdf as it is, I think it came out ...

@petejb Yeah I can understand that. At this point I will just be glad that the world isn’t drawn into WW3 because if it is, then nothing will matter, we will all be gone, apart from the super rich who...

@cazdaz Thanks Carol, I’ll have a look. 👍

Posted by: @russ 😂🎸🎶🙏 @russ That meeting may not end on a good note. Maybe they should scale it back a bit. 😉

Posted by: @russ That's a wee Bee...uty🐝 @russ Thanks Russ, it is a bit bumble bee 🐝 I love it too.

Posted by: @koendb Looks awesome @koendb Thanks man, it’s always nice to see complements, I appreciate it. 👍

Posted by: @bpower Looks neat when under a black light. 🙂 @bpower Nice, they look cool. I’ll have to try that now. 👍

@cazdaz By the way, I’m getting much closer to moving to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. We are in the process of emptying our house and moving temporarily to...

@cazdaz Hi Carol, I need a yellow knob (insert your own joke) for this guitar I’ve built and a yellow kill switch. Do you have any idea where I could get them? I’ve looked all over the place but can o...

Posted by: @robin All looking good boo @robin Thanks, I’ve grown rather attached to this guitar, I couldn’t stop playing it yesterday after I did the setup.

Oh and one last thing to add (I’ll do it tomorrow), I thought I would install some of these bright yellow strings for my customer. It will add to his vision of a matt black guitar (nitro) with black c...

I also installed the strap buttons and locks. I took advice from @mattbeels and drilled the hole on the bottom end of the guitar (for the strap button) a little higher from the centre line. This is so...
