Congratulations grampa @Robin! Wait a couple of years and get the littl'un to sort out that wiring (they have smaller fingers, easier to fish around inside a hollowbody). My first grandchild is just ...

@robin Congratulations on the grandchild Robin.

Still haven't got the electrics working, had the harness in and out another couple times now. There's been various faults, I'd broken an earth wire off one of the pots, a tiny bit of solder between t...

@tyreman Superb! A lovely build and inspiration for the rest of us. Proud of you man! ✊

@nsj Very nice work again Neil. 🙏🎶🙂🎸

@boo I've sold 5 but still have a few kicking about lol Attachment : 20230914_133017.jpg Attachment : 20230914_133025.jpg Attachment : 20230914_133028.jpg Attachment : 20230...

@tv101 I’ve heard a rumour that some do, yes! 😆 Myth and legend?

Hang on just a minute ... People sell guitars???

@nsj Looks stunning as usual. Are you like me that your guitar collection is outgrowing the space in your house or do you sell your creations on? Do you make them for yourself or for customers?

That's an incredible piece of workmanship Koen, proper old-school skills, and it looks like a beautiful instrument at the end of it. You'll have fun playing that in the local bars ... 😉 Big, BIG WOW...

@koendb It’s stunning work, I’m so impressed. It’s definitely a whole different ball game to making electric guitars. Sure a lot of fundamental skills are the same but the tools and skill set required...

Looks like a wipe-on poly for the final top shiny shiny finish. I keep meaning to make some up and give it a go. I take it you have to be very careful when wiping the first coat on so as not to ruin t...

Interesting to watch the body finish evolve in (sort of) real time through the various stages. Request echo'd! Particularly the final coats that add the shine (what's in that tin?).

made a slideshow video of the prototype build, hope this is allowed here? if not I'll remove it.

on the body I carved in another curve on the right side, also the replacement tuner has arrived today, thanks to northwest guitars for the great customer service, I'd highly recommend them. Attachm...

@tyreman Wow! Craftsman!

@boo @tv101 thankyou both!

Not another 12 string semi-hollow thru-neck Tele-esque build ... 😆 What a great build thread, and a few interesting design ideas that I might well pinch (sorry, "be inspired by") on a build ...

@tyreman I’ve somehow missed this until now. Nice work man, I’m loving it. I especially like the input socket bit, I’ve thought of doing that myself. Was it Charvel or someone like that that first did...

the new tuner should be coming early next week, the company I bought the tuners from are sending me a spare one so that's a good outcome.
