@somethingnicer You couldn't use it in that way for a Strat style bolt on but you could do a Gibson style bolt on. If you did want a Strat style neck then you could put the nut right at the end of you...

@liebe 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. 🎶&#x...

Mark did a video showing how to do the neck joint like you’re referring to. It’s on the guitar making YouTube channel.

@julioherrera That is great feedback Julio, thanks so much. I’ll have a word with my client and so just how wide he thinks wide is for him. I think you are right also about the radius, I was thinking...

Hello, my name is Julio Herrera. I will suggest you a 1.75" nut width is a good starting point for a Tele with a wide neck. For a Telecaster-style guitar with a wider neck, the width of the nut and th...

So if you remember my post about messing up my scale, I fixed that by altering the design of the body and cutting the top part (closest to the neck) off and making it look smooth. And it came out supe...

Thanks Bill. 🙂 I used the guitar for a full gig at PrestFest 2024 on Sunday (where Bill saw me) and then up to Glasgow for Sammy’s Open Mic at the Glad Cafe. It certainly does a lot of the stuff I pla...

Hi,I cancelled my subscription. I just checked to make sure the cancellation had gone through but found I can still log in my old account I could even view a video lesson. I assume my account is still...

@somethingnicer Yeah exactly that, don’t take the neck out. 😆 Yeah, take the bridge and all the other hardware off and prep the hell out of anything you want paint to stick to. Definitely mask...
