@Peebee. Kudos on the carve! Looks great. Quality building you got there. Your ducks are lining up nicely and this guitar looks like it will be so comfortable to play. Amazes me the potential Mark unl...

It’s about 12mm thick under the neck pocket, but it’s the sides of the pocket that are thin, because of the pick up rout, they are about 8mm, there is full depth before the pick up and all of the back...

So started the practice neck @peebee Excellent, it’s all looking good.

After after having to be at work two days this week and the cold, snow, at the beginning of the week, finally got back to the geeet today. So started the practice neck. Learned that I need a clamping ...

Did you glue it on or use double sided tape? Tape. NEC floor tape, naturally. Who did you use to put the image onto perspex? I really don't remember @frocesterbill. There are numerous companies...

and it’s Mötley Crüe, alright? @mattbeels 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙃 🤘😜🤘

@boo Yes, Theater of Pain tour! and it’s Mötley Crüe, alright?

@mattbeels Is that a picture of Motley Crue? 🤘😜🤘

@cheesewhisk Oh how I Love they Ken Lawrence Yeah his guitars are definitely awesome! I would always put the front pin on the side of the guitar for two very good reasons: When the pin is on the back...

Oh how I Love they Ken Lawrence. I actually have a Hetfield Snakebyte so is hazard a guess it’s in a similar position, the button is also on the neck joint on the back of the body rather than the horn...

@cheesewhisk it’s a bit hard to see in that photo but it’s basically on the same line as the front pin.

Good thinking @mattbeels, it’s center lined in my Harley Benton ‘template’ 😂 but that’s so new I haven’t tried with a strap yet. Will definitely give it a whirl this weekend

@robin I didn't have plastic like real guitars have, but I did have wood. I was just being a typical cheapskate Scotsman. I don’t think using wooden covers is being cheap, quite the contrary. I thi...

There are those that make wooden truss rod covers but they’re strong enough. I’ve seen the wooden ones (Taylor for example) split along the grain. Sure they look good and add a nice touch but they ult...

@boo What would you all do with a guitar you bought that had plastic cavity covers on? Would you make something out of wood or some other material? With bought guitars I simply leave them. I wouldn...

Like this Pickguard @eddie6string Yeah that is stunning, I agree, I wouldn’t cover that up, it’s beautiful. 👍

Can you believe they covered up that beautiful finish with a black piece of plastic?!? @mattbeels Now, in this case, I agree with you. That wood needs to be on full view, I would not cover that up wi...

@tv101 @eddie6string @mattbeels You all make good valid arguments for not having plastic pick guards etc and I agree in some cases. Just so you know, I’m not having a go at anyone, I’m just messing ab...
