@darrenking No problem, I ignored the NCG bit, I assumed it was somè modern technology that iv'e missed out on.

Good morning folks, Knobs! Sorry to be so blunt but there's no other way of saying it! I have looked through a lot of photos of everyones amazing electric guitar builds and I just wondered what the th...

@robin I have no idea what NGC is. I think autocorrect has been at it again. It should have said PDF!

@tv1010101 I know, cool huh?!

Darren I think your idea is great, personally I like the self torture of making my own templates as it’s part of the fun but I think there is definitely a market especially for things like pickup rout...

The venue was just a local pub, although the band have been on BBC introducing and I was hoping they would get signed. The guitarist and singer is the son of one of my mates from school (and the lad (...

Awesome I look forward to the post(s)...

Anyway, I have managed to get George to agree to play a couple of songs on my 'first born' so I'll be taking a video camera along with me to capture the event. So you've already got an endorsement de...

On Saturday afternoon/evening in my village, Rushden Herts, there is being held 'Rushfest' (not the Scottish one). Organised by one of my neighbours, George McGuire (Olivier Award Winner for his portr...

Sounds really good. What is the venue?

Sounds awesome and looks fantastic! I’m hoping to have a live gig video of my own to post on Sunday.....

Being played live

The best pickup combination I have done though if your feeling flush...are bare knuckle pickups. HPS90 (p90 in a humbucker case) Stockholm - neck Humbucker miracle man - bridge.. Around £300 but in th...

Hi Darren I'm not ready for printing yet, I've been distracted by my practice build that iv'e drawn on paper. I'll add the 1000mm x 100mm rectangle and export a pdf of what iv'e got and send you a fil...

Hi Robin, you should be able to NCG export from Solid Works as a pdf, which is ideal. Just put a 1000mm x 100 mm rectangle on the plan somewhere so that I can check that nothing has been scaled oddly...

@darrenking I'd be interested in a full size paper print. Iv'e been drawing my next guitar using SolidWorks, but I only have an A4 printer. Can you work from a dxf file, or what would be best for you...

It very much depends on the format that people can supply the drawings. If I can get enough people using Graphics (at about £20 per license - astonishing value!) then there is relatively little progra...

I think you'd find quite a market in the UK for someone able to provide decent quality and accurate templates. Not just for bodies/necks but for all the ancilliary templates too - pickup cavities, con...

One of the things I want to offer, and I think this would work quite well if Mark can supply the body (or neck) blanks, is to offer a bespoke machining service to guitar makers. This could be just be ...

@darrenking That is some pretty nifty kit you have Darren, I also have kit envy like @TV1010101 I’ll give Sykes Timber a look too. Thanks.
