Welcome @steveshandley-plus-com . Have fun along the way. Post progress pictures. We all love to see things coming together. And you couldn't find a better place to ask questions. 🙂

Hi everyone, so, after months of dithering, I finally signed up today. I’ve always been happy tinkering with guitars, got my hands dirty by restoring a rather battered RG 7420, including re-sanding fr...

@bpower Excellent work there, now I hope that you're going add dimensions before you waste your time on house chores.

Took some time and decided to get my drawing done for my next guitar build. My wife said to me, after the drawing was done, I needed to help with the house chores. So...... I did three different views...

Well, I didn't loose my house in the storm, but the school I work at took a bit of a hit. The building is fine, but we won't have power or internet services til January, they're telling us now. The li...

I wish the gouges were the only problem. I started double-checking the body template, and looking at my photos posted here. The neck is too short. Which is a shame, as I've just fitted the rear headst...

So, when I was a lot younger, I had one of these: Attachment : x145btafmhaosblung4w.jpg It's an Aria ET 240, a 70s Japanese sort of copy of a LP Junior double cut. It had quite nice tone, and w...

@jaxty Cool. I love Cape Breton. Me and the guys all gather once a year at a golf course on cape breton island for a fun filled golfing/drinking/guitar playing weekend. It's always a blast. My wife ha...

@bpower Thanks! I grew up on the east coast (Cape Breton Island). I love the east coast! I'll retire down there in a few years, hopefully!

Welcome @jaxty. I'm on the east coast of canada, the border between NS and NB. We need more Canadian content on here. This could be a slow Canadian takeover. And we won't be sorry. 🙂

I've posted in here before and lurked a while. I'm located in the Toronto, Canada area of the world... I watched Mark and Carol's "Build an Electric Guitar" live streams at the start of the pandemic...

Posted by: @jamesbisset I chose to sing an F for some reason @jamesbisset Oh I see, very dissonant. 😱 Only two semi tones (half steps) apart and when played, or sung, alongside each other, f...

Posted by: @boo I’m sick to death of the digital world. I try to stick to basic online communications with friends and family, as well as like-minded people in forums such as this one. I’ve spent too...

The B flat 7 chord is the five chord though isn’t it? It should kind of work as it’s still it’s still within the E flat Major key. @boo Unfortunately, I chose to sing an F for some reason. That’s the...

Posted by: @jamesbisset On the last sung note I should be playing a B flat 7 chord and instead I played the root E flat. @jamesbisset The B flat 7 chord is the five chord though isn’t it? It should ...

@jamesbisset We have some common ground there. I also have a musician friend who did recording and is now struggling with Parkinsons. Recordings we did on stereo cassette 40 years ago and later transf...
