To be brutally honest, having just watched the video, is it worth saving that body? It doesn't look to be the best mix of woods, and with the combination of the misplaced trem rout, and the rout-throu...

Never done exactly this but I cocked up fitting a Grainger ferule block in a similar way. I tried to make an exact fit for the hole i.e. oval shape at the ends and didn't succeed which meant lots of f...

Has anyone routed the trem cavity in the wrong place and repaired it? How would you fill the hole? 🤔 I’m going to block it and reroute it but I was wondering if anyone has done this before an...

acoustically my make a slight difference due to being hollow bodied? It might @Deej, but then again, there are other factors that might account for any difference (if there is an audible difference)....

It would be interest on peoples thought on what makes the best tone. Agree with what TV said. When plugged in it comes down to your fingers, pickups, and amp. Got an ex band mate who used both solid ...

@tv101 😂😂😂

not just be flappin’ my Jaws, Robocop.

Yeah @boo, but that wasn’t meant to be ‘the next one’, however you are definitely correct. I just like to put them in where they apply and not just be flappin’ my Jaws, ya know?

I’d buy that for a dollar! @mattbeels More Robocop. This could get out of hand. “I think we’re gonna need a bigger boat”
