Hi @c-cap, Welcome to the best guitar making forum in the WORLD!!!! I agree with @koendb in that the tricky bit would have been making the compound radius fretboard in the first place. As this has bee...

Hi Bill, I have never had to remove a bridge but, if I did, I absolutely agree with @rocknroller912. If there is no reason to reuse the existing bridge then planing or routing it off will do far less ...

Hi @boo What size nozzle do you have on your spray gun for clear lacquer? Cheers Darren

Mark made it Oooops! No offence meant Mark!

some advice Hi Steve, I think you should get a new truss rod. I’ve never seen an angle like that on any that I have bought. Looks buggered to me Cheers Darren

Thanks Cheesewhisk, it's on its way! Cheers Darren

I think the issue really is down to the wonky fretboard alignment so the neck ended up slimmer than it should have been. The beauty of the jig is that this wouldn't matter. You don't machine the body...

Hi Cheeswhisk, You need one of these! Shortly to be available from GMUK but can be ordered from me and I will credit M&C with their margin on the sale. Just make sure you let me know that you are...

The diagrams assume the person doing the soldering is familiar with the common practice in guitar wiring of soldering the terminal directly to the body to earth it Well I am now!😂😂

Ha! I’ve cracked it! In the original diagram I didn’t realise that the right hand terminal on the volume pot was also connected to earth, it just looked like it was missing (and therefore not being us...

Hi gang! It seems like a long time ago now, but I did complete this build but there is something odd with the electronics. I have followed the diagram sent by Jonathan (I'll get back to you about the ...

under an umbrella of wishes and hope But is it enough to protect you from a shit storm of mistakes and disasters ?!!

Hi gang, I saw the Noisettes at the Cambridge Corn Exchange a good many years ago now. It was the most surprisingly amazing gig I’ve ever seen my exposure to them up until that point largely being thr...

Well it's not a Bank Holiday weekend so it might even be sunny!

Here are two very different versions of the same brilliant song, one an instrumental by the amazing Jon Gomm, and the other, by a real local favourite of mine, Roxy Searle. It would be amazing to hear...

Nice!! I bet Mark has tried this with Carol's coffee table at some stage!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Looking good @bpower. Just a question, and this isn't aimed at you particularly bpower, but why, when all the other braces and the bridge reinforcement plate have to abut the cross braces, are the cro...

Hi @jonhodgson, Drop me an email to darren.king@bagpress.com detailing what you are after and your delivery address and I'll see what I can do. Cheers Darren

Looks like you’ve bought some great products there BPower! I took delivery of some soundboards from NW Canada only last week and I really hope you’re not in one of the stupidly hot regions, doesn’t lo...

Hi Tej, Depends where you are. I've bought some lovely timber from in the Midlands and they are keen to supply instrument makers and understand our requirements - which many other timber yards aren't...
