@markbailey Brexit! Sh!t it!

@koendb that looks incredible, I really need to pull my finger out and glue my neck in. Every time @markbailey says ‘be careful not to…’ that’s always where I end up 🤣 🤣    Genuinely excited to see your finished…   Read more»

Hi @c-cap welcome to guitar making. I’m still making my first electric, I went a little off script by building an explorer. Every question I ever asked @markbailey about going off the beaten path of the course, he always replied…   Read more»

I think the scale at 11 x 17 seems to work, albeit with a few minor typo/glitches…probably a scaling/printing issue…I’m thinking i raised the ‘ red flag’ a little to early…but i still appreciate you verifying,,,
 

@markbailey Mark, ty, I’ll check with the printers about the A4 designation; I downloaded the files from the link from the introduction home page, and then replaced it with the file[s] from the course itself;  from either Design  Your Own…   Read more»

(@markbailey) Mark, a newbie here…the patterns don’t seem to print to scale under normal printing..i’ve printed at 11 x 17  and by 8.5 x 11; so, for the tracings, i’ll have to redraw part of the lines…unles 1] I’m not…   Read more»

@darrenking. Hi Darren, Somewhere in the back of my head I think I remember Mark @markbailey talking about this in one of his YouTube videos. Not sure which one or even if I’m just miss- remembering. Sorry I can’t be…   Read more»

Thanks @markbailey. I have not carved the braces. Will carve them the day I’m ready to glue it on. I will keep the clamps on it though to help prevent as much movement as I can. 🙂 

@rocknroller912 this is the bridge I have below. It’s a little different to the one @markbailey uses in the video. I was planning to mount it with the posts in line  with the scale length line but 6mm back. Then…   Read more»

Super usefull information. I feel much more confident now
Huge thanks

@markbailey This is the dent (bottom left) I was talking about. I’ll opt for the drop off water first and see if that helps before trying anything more severe!

Fretboard and parts. Lovely Ebony fretboard from Mark @markbailey and I love Gotoh hardware in Cosmo Black. 

Here we go 🙂 This is the truss rod I have which gets quite big at one end:

@markbailey, or anyone else for that matter! The video lesson says that tightening it should make the centre of the rod…   Read more»

Thanks for this Mark. I was just thinking about this very thing this afternoon. 
Cheers,

Cheers @markbailey appreciate this link. 👍

@markbailey thanks for that, do you know of any non-spray finishes that work well over them? Given the economy of scale clearly A3 is best “value” which also means I’ll have to make many many guitars 🙂
