One day there will be a guitarmaking.co.uk convention, I can feel it in my bones!! @darrenking “So it shall be written, so it shall be done!” “If you build it, they will come!”

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...

Thanks Darren, very kind of you, much appreciated. Here is another headstock shape I came up with. The neck is Cherry and the fretboard is Ebony. It’s also a Fender style, parallel headstock but I’m u...

Did some more carving on the scarf joint neck. Attachment : 3E97CAB7-8F3D-4439-A90A-E1C4E5055309.jpeg Attachment : 49537594-36C0-46D9-A883-71A1D0B1304C.jpeg

Nice switches! Sorry, I am not sure what push/push means It’s what you have to do if you’ve got a French car @darrenking. 😉 Or ... it’s these ... A standard pot, but with a switch (technically, I...

a whole clan of guitar makers in his image Can you imagine .... .... no, please don’t even try .... ?

@johnnierox-boo Surely Mark is the template, making a whole clan of guitar makers in his image (or at least using most of his techniques and know-how). Anybody want to volunteer to be the bearing guid...

@robin We are all virtual friends through the medium and miracle that is the www but one day we may all meet in person, killer viruses allowing!

I hadn't even intended to make a guitar, making new friends is a bonus.

This forum is the template and like a real one, it has edges, boundaries, constraints and you have to carve out your own way to great projects and make friends along the way. How well you do it depend...

I've had a quick look around, but couldn't find the plans or templates for making the friends anywhere. I am of course joking! I know where the master template for “Friends” is. We are in it right...

Anyone know where they are? @TV1010101 Nope, no idea! Move along, nothing to see here! ?

I was looking through the benefits of the various levels of membership. I noticed that one of the benefits of the standard level is to "make friends". Now, I've got quite a few guitars already, probab...

I'll be sat here, with my knife, watching. ?

I have searched the forums for any Set neck v Bolt on neck debates but can't find any. This must surely be a topic that splits the nation isn't it? Any thoughts strongly one way or the other, either i...

I am out of my depth with wiring and as a player I like to keep it simple. Unless people ask for more knobs and electrics, I’m only putting 1 Volume and 1x 3 way switch for 2 pickups on all my builds....

Perhaps you could talk her into it one day. Haha, no I won't. I don't make guitars and basses for a living so I don't mind too much about the money. In this case I was ok just to get the money I ha...

Had I known it would end up as a decorative piece I would have installed cheap chinese pick-ups and tuners instead of Seymour Duncan and Grovers It does look cool. Yeah you should definitely have swi...

My first (and until now last) attempt to put some color on a guitar. Stained it cherry red and spayed it with a spraying can. Attachment : image.png Attachment : image.png Attachmen...

Hey Marcel, Don't you have a spare key to her house? She'll never know!! ? ?
