Happy new year to You both, Mark and Carol, and I hope that 2025 is your best year for quite some time. Hope to hear from you soon Darren

@rathius Hi Rathius and happy new year to you. You really shouldn't be seeing this kind of failure if the veneers are bonded properly in the first place and it suggests to me that they haven't been pr...

Hi All, have just joined and I'm seeking advice for finishing an old bass of mine. Glad to meet you all, Tony 😊

@liebe Yeah, I figured it might be problematic on top of wax oil but I've a few spare water slide decals I made up for a previous guitar so I'll give your suggestion a try. I've got to take Mrs Tesee ...

@liebe walnut is nice, not to heavy, same with cherry. Made a full start entirely from cherry. Both lighter than limba or at least black limba, posibbly similar to the likes of brazillian mahogany. Yo...

I've used beech, ash, oak, cherry and walnut so far. All been really good. Only tricky one is oak because I did a carve top and it's very hard lol

@koendb A true work of art 👍 😀

Hi Lena! Great question - The ends of the UFB and XB can be right next to each other, but if they are actually touching it will make it difficult to fit them as they will be glued on overlong to b...

Attachment : IMG_6893.jpeg Purple Mustang is finally dry, so I’ve been assembling and finally got down to electronics and I realized I ran my pickup wires through the mounting holes… so now I need...

In the meantime, I finished the rosette, turned the tuning pegs and fitted them to the pegbox. I also carved the lower inside of the pegbox for better string access Attachment : 5A018EEA-CAED-4218...
