It is a bit much for a one off. People seem to have quite a bit of success with DIY transfers on YouTube. I also wonder about screenprinting something. But I've just remembered that there is a little...

@tej Ive thought about doing things a different way, like doing a two wood headstock say rosewood and ebony instead of a plain one colour. Tried it once it worked ok.

…turns out I calculated the price wrong, A5 sheet in two colours was quoted to me at just under 170, now I really can’t justify that. Think I’ll just buy a pen and learn to write neatly 🤔

Has anyone had success with DIY transfers, pricing up an A4 2 colour transfer sheet from approved is coming in at just under 100 which I just cant justify the price of?

Excellent save. I've just emotion-surfed, from the tears of "it's gone wrong" to the almost-a-smile of "hey guys, what do you think". Personally, I prefer the rosewood rosette to the celtic inlay rubb...

@darrenking Ive recently watched the video on this and I think that Mark said its because the other braces are flexible enough to take the curve although they are glued on flat and once the top is cur...

@darrenking .... someone with a little more knowledge may have to answer this one. I'm still new enough that I did it that way because Mark on the video says so. I understand what you are saying thoug...

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...

@bpower Very neat job

Very neat job @bpower. 👍😁 🙏🎸🙂🎶

Just catching on this thread. Looks like some good progress there, and a definitely-guitar shaped instrument is emerging from the pieces. Your thread title caught my eye ... "(wife's guitar)". I star...

Well.... got some progress done this weekend. Home made rosette done, sound hole cut out, all braces done and glued. All shaped except the x-braces. Will get those carved when the sides are done. On t...

Got the final coats of clear coat on yesterday, finally got time. I’ll leave it for a week or so before giving it a final flat and polish to bring it up like glass. Attachment : 549A47AA-1FAE-48B...

(@markbailey) Mark, a newbie here...the patterns don't seem to print to scale under normal printing..i've printed at 11 x 17 and by 8.5 x 11; so, for the tracings, i'll have to redraw part of the lin...

@tv1, @russ, @mattbeels, @Boo, @Koendb, @rocknroller912, (@russ),@tv1, @russ, @mattbeels, @Boo, @Koendb TY, I've modified the top upper bout to not have the cut-away horn, instead, it's going to have ...

@russ Thank you sir. 👍

Excellenté @boo. 👍😁 🙏🎸🙂🎶

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

Black pickups might not give enough contrast ( perhaps depending on the bridge color? )So why not make it more stealthy instead? I like the idea @koendb I think I’ll just put the original chrome brid...

Just make sure you let me know that you are a forum member if you place an order. Too late sorry, I didn't read this bit.
