Hi @hursty Welcome to the guitar building world. I'm sure you're going to have fun trying. Here is a link to a deal at Yandles for the BS250 Cheers, Russ 🙏🎶🎸🙂

What is a constant in both sessions I've seen from James is that he really lays down some funky grooves I really like James' recordings - and I'm envious of the skills he's got in overdubbing (etc) ...

Very neat video editing too @tv101. 👍📽️ 🙂🎶🎸🙏

@jamesbissett. Hi James, you're music reminds me of the early 80's alternative Scottish music scene.....Orange Juice, Josef K, Aztec Camera and the like. 👍🤔 🙂🙏🎸...

Thanks @Russ - I thought a little "practising" was in order after the previous debacle!

Well, it’s about time you made your mind up, and allowed Mark to get on with it .... 😉

I got a note from the Bailey crew the other day, and for those who're interested we've settled on some Kluson machine heads. #nearlythere Attachment : 20210419_125805.jpg Attachment : 20210...

Nice bit of Flanging tonight @tv101. Nice song choice too 🎶🎸🙏🙂

For anyone who's not seen an email - Carol was unwell last night, so decided best to have an early night, and *not* to run Bliss to avoid passing on the bug to any of us. She's feeling better today. ...

@koendb This was the result of a test with using the router dowel cutter, it’s a soft start router so I got away without clamping it for the test so arguably could be marginally more accurate! Atta...

@tej That's very tidy. What was your methodology for placing the holes so evenly? I'm also looking at a Tele style build, and unfortunately top loading tele bridges are relatively rare (I haven't foun...

take no notice of @Boo, it doesn't have to be a solid finish in pink flake, other colours are available @tv101Absolutely! There's red flake and blue flake and purple flake, all sorts of choices!

I still find multiple "learning opportunities" on most builds ... @tv101 my main aim though is when it happens to be sure that I solve the problem first time without making new problems as I’ve done ...

Not that a single thing will go wrong of course, I think the chances of a single thing going wrong are minimal @Tej 😉 I still find multiple "learning opportunities" on most builds ...

Any job that "I'll just do this quickly" generally turns out to take much much longer! @tv101 yeah for my proper build I have to keep in mind I’m not working to anyone’s schedule but my own and that ...

@koendb other thought I had for this is if you get a loooong drill bit and make a thick drill guide from some hard wood on the pillar drill and then clamp this to the body and use that with the long b...

This was my one chance to fix this and I’m still not happy with the result but it was all from my own lack of preparation and rushing, The number of times I've had that experience @Tej ... Any job ...

Everything that can go wrong goes wrong multiple times it seems! Sometimes it feels like that, but, in reality, you've got more of it right than wrong, and the bits that aren't quite right are fixabl...

Getting the ferrules in was a disaster @koendb I really feel for you on this one, your picture of where the ferrules ended up is very similar to the mess I ended up with on my Tele kit build. Only cl...

Making mistake after mistake it seems. It is like I am not able to keep an eye on everything, making sure everything is how it is supposed to be, I focus on one thing, failing to look for other things...
