@nsj The segment I’m talking about is part of another video or class. I remember it as an alternative way for installing the neck and it kinda makes it look like a neck-thru. Oh well, I’ll keep looking. @tv1 isn’t…   Read more»

You’re in Scotland @boo??
Well, you kept that quiet
🤣 🤣 🤣 
 

I like the curves on that design @nsj – I can’t do anything quite like that on this build, but I had something similar in mind.
Also really like the fact that you use proper cavity covers on your builds!!

Spot on @NSJ. I used a standard Tele plan as the core for the CNC design, and the standard plan assumed a standard 4…   Read more»

Ok operation new neck is under way, the decision has been made.

Look on the bright side, you get to do one of the fun parts again. I think carving the neck is my favourite part of guitar making.

Hi Neil,
I’ve just had a wee look at your YouTube videos. You’ve been very productive since you started during lockdown. You’ve got a definite knack for this guitar building malarkey…….and the videos are very entertaining too.

@nsj 
Welcome Neil. Sounds like you’ve hit the ground running. Looking forward to seeing some of your builds 
…… I’m also up here in the cold country.

@nsj   Welcome to the group from another fellow Scot here. I started during lockdown too, purely because I found Mark’s livestreams and this group of helpful people. I’m still on my third build, but it has come to a stop,…   Read more»
