@somethingnicer ah good news! You could stay with 2 pickups and use a push pull as a pickup selector. But as you've gone back to your original plan, all good!

Hi @somethingnicer, I'm presuming you've drilled the hole for the switch, but not routed out the cavity for the switch and that's what you're wanting to do next? You are pretty close to the edge. It'...

Hi @boo, I've not built one myself, but there's certainly PRS guitars factory made with FR bridges at 25" scale. I don't know if Gibson factory make them, but certainly seen LPs etc fitted with FR. I'...

Attachment : PXL_20240701_163211973.MP.jpg I thought I'd give a bit of an update as there seemed to be some interest in my finishing schedule of z-poxy as grain filler with brush on melamine lacqu...

@brie all three photos look in good order. I really like the poplar and the London plane cap! Looking forward to updates

Hi Emmanuel, I'm not very good at taking my own advice, but the trick is practice, practice, some more practice and then a little more practice. The best advice is to get a guitar teacher. If you can...

@clinton looks great, fella! Good work on the binding. Where did you get the timber? Cheers Dan

Thanks @nsj I'll take a look. I'd go for glue in, I think. I'm often finding with guitar building (but can be asked to life in general) is that I often don't know what I don't know. So when looking a...

@nsj I saw your post on Instagram and hoped you'd share more photos here. It's a great job! I've only made double cutaways up to now, but fancy a pop at a single cut. In your experience is there anyt...

@nsj Cheers buddy. Sounds like I need to keep the chap with the drum sander sweet😅

Hey @nsj Sounds like a good plan, thanks. I had thought about a router sled, but was worried about chip out on figured woods. Following up with the planner and then the plane to get it really flat ma...

Thanks @russ !

Cheers @russ, that's good to hear. I should have specified I'm taking about making electrics. So I'm thinking about carve or drop tops on the bodies, bit also the neck blanks and gluing the fretboard...

Hey @russ, thanks for the reply and suggestions. Do you have any experience of these machines? I can use a plane to a degree, but my skills are limited for sure and practice can only make that better....

Hey folks, looking for a bit of advice. Up to now I've either bought or paid for my timber to be planed flat, whether it be neck & body blanks, but also tops for gluing into the body. I'd like to...

@jamesbisset it's looking awesome! A proper jazz box and love the headstock detail.

Thanks @tv101! A slow and steady process by hand. I think having z-poxy as a sealer helped stabilise the top and helped the crispness of the line.

You've all been very good builders, so you can have an update from me as a reward😅 I've got the necks glued on two of the builds on, with the third going under the clamps just now. I'm really...

@nsj looks very cool!

Hey @brie This is a link to the tops, nothing secret squirrel!
