Made some different control cavity templates today and routed it into the body. I also cut the body shape out on the bandsaw, I’ll route the shape tomorrow as the cold weather got a bit too much. The ...

I like the bumblebee pickup! @mattbeels Thanks man, this is a Bareknuckle Rebel Yell in yellow and black. It’s not for this guitar but it is going on another Bansman that I will be building when I’ve...

@boo Lookin good dude, I like the bumblebee pickup!

This model is only having one pickup and one volume pot. There is also not going to be any scratch plate so I need to do a stellar job of getting the tenon level with the body. I’ll have to use some f...

I managed to get my head into gear today to do a bit more on my second bandsman build. A bit of routing and bandsawing. Attachment : 11205305-0CA6-496E-B3E5-68C8A3539FBD.jpeg Attachment : ...

@clinton Could not do it earlier because of the hidden tenon. Gotta glue the neck first then put the cap on Ah yes, I understand now, I hadn't realised that it wasn't glued together. My fret crownin...

@boo Thanks, it has been quite a journey. A few first time trying out new things incorporating Mark’s course and you tube live streams.

Home stretch @clinton That is some going on this build, it looks great.

@robin Well, just did that. Could not do it earlier because of the hidden tenon. Gotta glue the neck first then put the cap on but before that, I had to actually finish stain dye it first due to the h...

@tv101 Thanks, bridge holes and humbucker cavity just got done. I am dreading the fret job today.

@clinton . My first attempt on a hidden Tenon. Kinda neat. Nice job. And not just a hidden tenon, you've hidden the pickup pockets and bridge posts too.

That's looking good @clinton ...

I’ve spent all afternoon sanding this Sun King (Atum Ra) guitar down so it can be polished. I did the majority of it with the power sander with a 2000 grade disk (wet sanded) but spent a long time get...

Agreed @Boo "You're not paying me for the couple of hours I'll spend painting that thing. You're paying me for years of experience I've earned, so that I can paint that thing how you want it painted"...

Great demonstration today of how hard it is to prepare wood using hand tools. I’d love a drum sander but don’t have the space, so if your limited like me or don’t even have power this is what I use. F...

Could be controversial... Ooooooo........ 😯😯😯😯 Ultimately controversial. I like it. 😁
