@darrenking Hi, a friend of mine gave me this Tune O Matic Bridge Pick up as a gift. I’ve had it for quite some time. The bridge has piezo installed underneath each of the saddles and out goes a groun...

@marcel really nice builds Marcel. Would love to build a bass one day and even got the hardware already. Just gotta muster the mindset to get it design specs right to get the ball rolling. My dilemma ...

The green one also has a piezo tune o matic bridge pick up along with a P90 neck pick up. Alder with purpleheart fretboard. Interesting tone in the middle position. Sounds like a super beefed up Acous...

I used Keda dye for the green. Still new at all this for I always used oil stain prior. Wished I dyed it black first and sanded for the grain to pop more but got intimidated. Now I know. The red one ...

Hi Yes, I have seen Chestnut on Guitars, dulcimer sand ukekeles. They tend to have wormy holes which is part of the charm. You can play with epoxy resin to fill it in. Looks like you got yourself ...

@petersoyanov Nice bench, intense! I miss my 335. I regret selling it. It is by far my most favorite guitar. The first design of a center block. Birth of the semi hollow.

I love how forgiving walnut is to work with. Attachment : AAC07530-D5FE-4430-AD80-7971BB08E9FB.jpeg Attachment : image.jpg

Hi Wow John, nice jig! Mine is so much simpler but works quite effective. Same exact concept but it is held by a thin saw blade sandwiched on boards with the blade dull side up sticking out to whe...

Oh wow, my dilemma is shadows. LED eliminates it?

Splendid! What is the scale length?
