@markbailey Maybe you could talk about what to use for nut lubrication (if needed), types of nut and tuners. I think some nuts have built in lube (Graphtech?) Locking tuners, vintage tuners and all in between. All of this depends…   Read more»

Could you guys head over to youtube and click ‘set reminder’? – it would be interesting to see if it affect the number of views…

@markbailey Yep, will do. 

@markbailey thanks, i’ll try that 
i’ll also message soon about ordering more wood for a 2nd home build – it’s a bit addictive !

What’s the news from the mouse monkeys? @markbailey?   I’m hoping that the uploaded content just hasn’t been transferred from the old to the new server.  Fingers crossed. Or, it might be that the content has been transferred, but that…   Read more»

Another great session today @markbailey and thankyouverymuch!!
I’m going to try an earthing anchor point on my next build.  Or perhaps a tiny terminal block/strip (if such a thing exists).  Just to try it!

👍 @markbailey – I’ll be sat here at 1pm, ready and watching!!

A hot topic on the forum @markbailey….

I have to say that this happened to me yesterday, there is a glitch in the system Yup – I’ve noticed it happening to a few people/posts. I’m guessing that it’s another symptom of us over-working the host/server.  @markbailey did…   Read more»

I’m not sure it would work but if all the slots are off by 1mm you could but the bridge on off square but 1mm… @markbailey may be able to advise on that..fir the price of a fretboard I would…   Read more»

@markbailey I enjoyed this live session today on soldering, it’s definitely one of my weaker points so thanks for showing some basics. I need the practice now. I don’t want to hate it, I want to learn to love it. 

Who doesn’t smile when they see that view?? @tv1010101 Sadly I still haven’t visited @markbailey and Carol at the workshop. I did the online electric guitar build course a few years ago and I’ve not stopped building guitars since. It’s…   Read more»

Missed this one live and forgot to watch the playback fully …great live stream as usual and very informative..cheers @markbailey

That’s 75% of the places sold – and @markbailey hasn’t even prepared the course yet … Great, they need all the support they can moving forward. I’m sure @markbailey can knock a course out in a few weeks…   🤣

Thanks @david-johnson09, I’m totally looking forward to a 335 course too!

That’s 75% of the places sold – and @markbailey hasn’t even prepared the course yet …

Surely Mark is the template, making a whole clan of guitar makers in his image @darrenking I would say @markbailey is the designer and creator of the guitar making template but that is just the start. All of us here…   Read more»

@markbailey Hi Mark, These are by far the most beautiful little switches that I have ever found and I use them on a lamp base product that I make from time to time (www.woodqube.com). In fact, it was the lack…   Read more»

I’ll mainly be using the Grinder

@markbailey Very amusing! 🤣

@markbailey I’m not sure whether you have covered this but I want to install pickups (humbuckers) into a body with no pickup rings (direct mounted). I know people use wood screws but I don’t like that idea. I have bought…   Read more»

@markbailey   Thanks Mark, I’ll give that a go. Looks like I’ll be spending the rest of the afternoon sharpening old abused chisels.

@marcel I do agree with you about @markbailey but you are not giving yourself enough credit. I’m sure you could do it on your own now that you have been to the workshop a few times. All of us can,…   Read more»
