@liebe It’s gone really well for you hasn’t it, they look great. I’m definitely going to try this finishing product out. I’m a spray guy as you know but these results are proving that great finishes can be achieved without…   Read more»

@liebe I think you’re being too modest!!😃 However, if it was luck…..stay lucky!!🤣😃👍🎸

These look absolutely fabulous Dan @liebe I love the finish you get on them. I have persisted with Spray on Nitro up to now with varying degrees of success but think I will give this a try. Do you have…   Read more»

@liebe what you’ll find in the video is you need the wood of the body to extend beyond the body so the heel of the neck is covered by the extension of the body wood under the neck joint. You…   Read more»

@liebe Hi Dan, 10mm seems to be the recommended minimum but if both sides of your heel are being glued into the neck…   Read more»

Hi Dan,
I would think that with the glued on neck you’ve got a bit more strength but looking at that picture of the bolt on I’d say that was on the limit if not a wee bit past it.

@liebe I like creating my own designs instead of making copies of all the generic guitars on the market. It’s a lot more fun and keeps things way more interesting. Plus when someone wants you to make a copy of…   Read more»

@liebe hey Dan, thanks a lot. I ended up plugging the hole and just going down to one pickup… this was my original plan to begin with so not worrie. I’ll just cover the pickup hole with a pick guard

@liebe Thanks for the input Dan, I appreciate it. It’s good to know, I’ll look into it further. 👍

@liebe Thanks

@liebe depends on whether it’s glued or bolted, I like bolted pretty snug if possible but glue in needs room for the glue and to tight can cause real issues. Don’t want a lot of side to side slop but…   Read more»

@liebe Radian tools sell a planer bit to use with a router sled, it’s excellent. Just take small bites.   A thickness planer or planer table is a lot more likely to take chips out of figured wood. As for…   Read more»

@liebe make yourself a cheap router sled, I recently did that with a piece of contiboard and a couple of rails. Great for getting things straight. Then I’ll stick it through my thickness planer to get the other side done,…   Read more»

@liebe Hi Dan, I’ve got the Rutlands planner/thicknesser. With the blades reasonably new it planes a very smooth surface. As long as you double check the fence and make sure it’s tight it planes a near perfect 90 degrees when…   Read more»

@liebe Hi Dan, A planner/thicknesser or a  thicknesser & a surface planner are great things to have if you are going to be using rough timber. For the cheaper option or if you have limited space you could get a…   Read more»

@liebe Thanks for the link Dan,  now I’ve looked I remember having a browse through the tops a while ago, memory not what it used to be!!🤣🤣

@liebe Great work Dan, you got a real production line going there!! Really like the woods you’re using for the tops, would like to know more about Mark and Carol’s discount tops bin (don’t see anything about it on the…   Read more»

@liebe You appear to have been very successful finishing this guitar, it looks really well. I’ve never used that product but I might just try it after seeing this, I’m always up for trying new things. None of us have built…   Read more»

@liebe Thanks Dan. It looks like black superglue is thick. 03a describe theirs as medium thick.  I’ve just ordered a 20g bottle from http://www.smallwonder-music.co.uk/shop/Tools-and-Finishing/Superglue/p-123-494/ because £6.95. Small Wonder says, “Black Superglue tends to be thick in consistency so I usually…   Read more»

@liebe it’ll either be extra quiet or extra noisy lol
