I completely agree but... ? Ahhhhhhh @mattbeels, but I didn't make that one. It was created for me, by a guitar making genius, using special magic, known only to a master of the guitar building ...

Hah, yeah I thought mentioning the scale length was somewhat irrelevant afterward. I think they’d be bang on if I’d gone with a 54mm bridge, anyway, given it’s not something I’d paid the slightest att...

They’ll be absolutely fine. Standard spacing as used on most HB-equipped, fixed bridge guitars. You don’t get different pole piece spacings for different scale lengths. Just imagine all the combina...

I’m looking at a pair of pickups for my bandsman build, the iron gear ones I’m looking at have two options for spacing Bridge = 52mm, Neck = 50mm E to E on my design over the centre of the bridge Humb...

Thought I would have a practice run using the methods that Mark shows on the live streams before starting on the wood I bought from Mark & Carol. First job is making the blank flat and level and n...

Mowing the lawn (4hrs, but got half of it done) and painting* the bits of a shed before putting it together. @tv101 Oh the joys of spring eh? 😁 I've actually enjoyed going back to work, I did...

What you working on today T? Mowing the lawn (4hrs, but got half of it done) and painting* the bits of a shed before putting it together. Fun, fun, fun @Boo! (*no metal flake used!)

But I decided that it would have been a silly and childish thing to do. @tv101 Yes I know that trick too but can you really be bothered? 🤣 I suppose we could all do it to each other though a...

gotta get to 20k somehow, right? I did have a cunning plan @mattbeels, to keep Boo at 19,900 (19,999 would have been too close), whilst everyone else slowly caught him up. But I decided that it would...

Just in case anybody thinks that my woodworking is limited to things controlled by a keyboard I thought I should put the flattening jig through it paces. I picked an old lump of ash measuring 200mm x ...

@tv101 I honestly thought I’d looked on axetec as I was looking to get pickups from there!! Clearly didn’t look very well! Does remind me though that I need to decide on pups!!!

Does remind me though that I need to decide on pups!!! Those Iron Gear p’ups are very good. Depends on what sort of sounds you want if course. I have Rolling Mills and the Blues Engine / Dirty Torqu...

@Tej - here you go;

I think the Humbucker surrounds will be swapped out for something nicer too. Definitely a good call. (I'm not a fan of bits of cheap black plastic appearing *anywhere* on a guitar! We spend ages...

I feel like I should buy one, just because it's another beautifully made and functional jig. But I don't need one, because I already made my own! (Darren's is much nicer - mine is just a couple of a...

Nice tidy workshop James.

@boo for some reason I want to make the 8 string bass, despite the fact that I don't play bass. I'd probably have to make it right handed just so I could hear it played.

@jonhodgson Me too. 👍 Attachment : 264ACAFD-5401-4042-B122-C5FA3F7269FC.jpeg Attachment : 1D2C3BD6-3C26-4B13-BF9A-939660BE3D5B.jpeg Attachment : C02A15AB-504B-487B-9A35-FF5D...
