Thanks, I negotiated with my Sister, as she wanted a purple one. My opinion is that this combination of colours (4) was visually more attractive.

this is a guitar kit I made for my Sister. Learned a lot, and will be applying these lessons learnt to my own kit being built now. Attachment : DSCN5838.JPG Attachment : DSCN5839.JPG

It is not a method I've used or recommend for inlaying guitars (in my experience you cannot get a crisp outline like a 'proper' inlay) but it should work... sounds like they need to be polished maybe?...

Hi again culbinguitars, it sounds a bit like the resin might not have cured right through. I've had it seem hard on the surface but turned into a mess as you describe after trying to sand. The epodex ...

Thank you @markbailey. I've just done contrasting wooden dots before using a plug cutter but wanted to try something different this time. I've polished and polished the resin up to 800 grit and it's s...

Thank you for having me. I'm 50 some years old and have loved guitars since I can remember. I have owned about 12 of them threw out my life, but the sad thing is....... I never learned to play them b...

Hi all and Happy New Year! I’m back and hope to post again about builds…… I did a third workshop course in 2022 and since then haven’t done any building…… Three of us did the 2022 course, the previous...

@liebe Hey Dan This is Carol now on Marks page 😉 NO offence taken at all - we know we have been absent, and it is shame indeed ... BUT we are finally making our way back up to where we were ... and ...

@rathius Hi Rathius and happy new year to you. You really shouldn't be seeing this kind of failure if the veneers are bonded properly in the first place and it suggests to me that they haven't been pr...

Hi @teesee, I'm not an expert on spraying or the pluses and minuses if different types of lacquer. Wish I was! On my last builds I used a brush on melamine lacquer I had decent results with and it wa...

@liebe Yeah, I figured it might be problematic on top of wax oil but I've a few spare water slide decals I made up for a previous guitar so I'll give your suggestion a try. I've got to take Mrs Tesee ...

Hi All, first post on here. I've a Yamaha BB4 NF4iii - what a mouthful! 😝 I bought it from Ebay a few years ago and it was the natural lacquered finish but was dinged up and scratched in plac...

Very happy with this. Chambered Tele-ish thing for a friend. Nice Ovankol top from Mark & Carol. Attachment : IMG_1975.jpeg Attachment : IMG_1976.jpeg

Test on scrap!!! @clinton You know how Mark always says test on scrap? Well, I've just tested some candy paints over metal flake on this scrap body. I burst some black candy around the edges first ...

Here’s my #2. It’s a mustang style with 3 jaguar pickups. Has a 5 way rotary encoder instead of a blade switch. 25.5” scale, and I think I’m gonna keep building at that scale. Pickups were hand wound ...
