@brie no shame in that, I'm sure it still rocks!

@nsj yeah, good suggestion! I've not done it on this neck, but I have another 1" blank and a small selection of veneers. Could look pretty cool. Apologies in advance for the incoming interrogation! Wi...

@brie thank you. Nice Bo Diddley vibes on your build, looks great! I've got some of crimson's stains, but not their oils. I used liberon finishing oil on my last build, is crimson's much different to ...

Hi folks, After the relative success of my first electric build (and it's subsequent sale, woohoo!) I wanted to push myself (my luck) on my second build with a few experiments.. First I wanted to try ...

Mine are all one way. I've not watched that video yet. The truss rod recommended for the Bandsman build is a slimline 2 way and that fits into a neck with glued fretboard without issue, if that helps.

Hey @swepri, I've not made any bit on necks yet, but I've set up quite a few guitars with bolt on necks. The vintage approach is to have the adjustment in the heel. Fender later changed it to the head...

@brie good work!

@clinton thanks again. I made the box section longer at 10" (as my blank is thicker) and that's really worked. Attachment : PXL_20230909_135052225.MP.jpg Attachment : PXL_20230909_14193656...

@brie that sounds like a plan! When I did my bad thing, I didn't want to change the shape of the body, but reshaping is always an option. @nsj is correct and has much more experience than me, I just w...

@brie, I feel you you, man! I had a router booboo at a similar point. Although your area is larger, I'm not certain if the tear out is any deeper than mine? Attachment : PXL_20230718_094942740.MP....

@clinton superb, much neater then mine! Thanks for your help.

Hi @clinton, thanks for the reply. Have you made this jig too? I did think the thickness of the piece would have an effect, but didn't think it would be that much - shows what an idiot I am! I've had ...

Hi All, I've completed my first electric build and really happy with it. My next project is to build a scarf headstock neck, and after following @markbailey YouTube live vid I've tried to copy the jig...

@tv101 thanks! I'll look into changing my username too

@sanjeevmansotra thank you for your kind comments!

@brie thanks Brian. I've found the whole process so much fun albeit with a step learning curve! It's not perfect, but what I learnt from making the mistakes and how to rectify them is invaluable. Do i...

@swepri thanks! It's been an excellent learning opportunity too. Onwards to the next build!

Nice work on the headstock repair! I've restrung and tuned a sitar before, that is a never ending job!

Lovely work!
