Posted by: @boo That is really cool. I’ve never built a bass guitar, never mind a Bandsman bass. What a great idea. This forum is really good, it’s full of people with ideas and inspiration for others...

@rocknroller912 Your acoustic looks like a jumbo style, what make is it. It's a Stagg SW203.

@james-chacewatergmail-com-2 Arch tops take a long time, it's more like carving a violin than other styles of guitar making. No running the parts through a drum sander to thickness the front and back....

Here's mine then. Only one home build so far. The strat was bought a bit a time and assembled, I was surprised to find that the body is plywood. The Tanglewood Tomkat has been relegated to my second f...

@james-chacewatergmail-com-2 I used a set of plans from Stew Mac in 1985 I think for the arch top, and wood from a local wood yard. It's got quite a treble sound and not much bass. I probably need to ...

@rocknroller912 love the look of that archtop
