I think it looks fine Louis, I definitely wouldn’t worry about it. The vast majority of people won’t even notice. Once you’ve sanded those pencil marks off, put the frets on and put the strings on, i...

It still needs some sanding but i think i will stick with it. @louis-kerckhove I think it looks fine Louis, I definitely wouldn’t worry about it. The vast majority of people won’t even notice. Once ...

Attachment : 20210317_155338.jpg Hi, here is the fretboard. It still needs some sanding but i think i will stick with it. Louis

just make sure they are on the correct frets, ask me how I know, no don’t 😆). How....no sorry @boo I’ll not ask

Hey @louis-kerckhove. I'd agree with @tv101. Try inlaying something slightly bigger. 🙏🎸🎶🙂

So i am asking for you advice, redrill the holes and fit some mother of pearl inlays or leave it just be? @louis-kerckhove I don’t know without seeing some pictures but I would be tempted to just lea...

Hi @louis-kerckhove Sorry I’m late to the discussion. It’s looking good but sorry to hear you have had a little hiccup. I drilled the side dots and went through the front of the fretboard on one of t...

And, just to repeat, don't beat yourself up. We've all done similar, or worse. (I've done plenty worse!!)

But i think i have screwed up. We don't allow the term "screwed up" here. It's called a "learning opportunity". Just about all of us make sure that every build provides us with at least one learnin...

Louis Think we would need a photo to be able to comment, but filling in the holes with dowel to get a new centre and drilling again bigger is a plan. Mark did a tube live recently on finding the centr...

Hi all I haven't been able to work much on my guitar. But i think i have screwed up. You guys told me that if there were errors in the process i had to share it so here i go. I have been doing the inl...

There isn't much room on the headstock to do an inlay, also it's a bit ambitious for a first build. I think it would look good if you signed your name on the body and then sealed it with a clear coat....

@louis-kerckhove For me “the personal touch” is simply the name on the headstock. Pretty traditional I know but hey I’m an electric guitar player, we’re rather conservative, right?!? Your guitar is al...

Hi all! I did some more work on the guitar, some sanding and stuff. I will be installing the fretboard soon. I was thinking about giving my guitar a personal touch. I would like to have my name or s...

Congrats on the progress Louis! Looking great for a first build. Actually, looking great for a second, third, fourth (!) build. Nice work. 😎

@mattbeels I removed most of the material from the neck with a milling machine. My grandad fired it up so we could do most of the removal with machine. It still has te be sanded, it now has a kind of ...

@louis-kerckhove Excellent work! Your neck carve looks great, which tools did you use? I wonder if a Shinto Rasp would be good for wenge 🤔 You may want to consider reshaping the bottom horn fo...

Hi Louis Your build is looking good I hope it plays as good as it looks

Hi Everyone, I hope everyone is doing allright. Today i did some neck carving and routed the neck pocket. I also cut out the shape, it starts to look like a guitar. I also have a picture of the assemb...
