I also made a video of it.

I just had to do it. One more bass. Another trip to Scotland. After I made the fretless bass it just had to have a brother. Or sister. So again a swamp ash body, maple (scarfe) neck, Lindy Fralin Jazz...

Well John, after my 5th course I decided to try it at home and over the years I've made several guitars and basses. And some of them worked out really well.

@marcel I do agree with you about @markbailey but you are not giving yourself enough credit. I’m sure you could do it on your own now that you have been to the workshop a few times. All of us can, if ...

Thank you, it could not have been done without the best guitar building tutor in the world Mark Bailey.

That is such a beautiful instrument, amazing work @marcel

In 2004 I went to the Bailey workshop to build a guitar for the first time. A year later I returned to build a bass and in 2006 I realised I was addicted. So in 2006 again I travelled to Scotland to m...

@david-johnson09 Can I be your friend @marcel. Tart. ?

You are inspiring me. Wow, that's the best compliment I can get. I'm planning on building another 12-string in the near future. I love the sound of a 12-string and as I gave this one away I'd love t...

Hiya all, I really enjoyed Mark's video on fretting today (thanks Mark!). I've got a question on refrets that I thought some of you might be able to help with. I'm happy and quite competent with refr...

Hi Adam, I have seen Jonny Kinkead using the thin superglue as a lacquer after making the fret ends flush. You can sand and polish it. It’s in a refretting video from that pedal show. I was also looki...

I really wanted to attend at the workshop in Scotland but being in Canterbury To be fair, Mark is quite a long way from most places. But he's a *VERY* long way from Canterbury! My last trip was a 7...

@david-johnson09 I’m hoping for another visit for the long awaited 335 course There's a co-incidence!!!

the zero fret does not need to be bigger than the other frets, if you think about it, if a bigger fret was needed then the first fret would need to be bigger than the second fret, the second fret woul...

I would say it's a bad idea I'm coming round to that way of thinking too @rocknroller912. I need to build some necks, and I was considering all the different options. But I think I'll stick to a mor...

I would say it's a bad idea because the zero fret is under string pressure all the time and is bound to wear faster than the other frets. Ive repaired lots of guitars with zero frets and also think th...

@darrenking Yeah thanks Darren. I watched this video that Mark did and he suggested using 80, 120 and 240 grits, then finish it off on a diamond stone. I think your advice on buying a diamond stone to...

@robin This video Mark made on sharpening chisels is really good but he also mentions that he may do another video on sharpening gouges. He also mentions yet another video on sharpening cabinet scrape...

It’s about 8 hours from here with a couple of stops........ That’s assuming that the M6 is a motorway and not a car park.....

@tv1010101 thanks mate, yeah I think I'll be on 10 or 11 hours!
