@nsj as for a full on fretboard, uhm you mean the dots or artwork, like a dragon, roses, etc? something I had considered was starting with 2 pieces of abalone shell as fretboard marker inlay. I have some that are…   Read more»

@nsj  That gives it more of a wood burning look doesn’t it. Not very deep at all just darken the logo. Cool, cool, cool. That would be an easy way of differentiating between say model A-1 and model A-2, meaning…   Read more»

@nsj Yeah sure, I know about that. I’ll try some. 👍

@nsj See, I know that little about electronics and soldering, I didn’t know there was leaded and unleaded solder. Is the leaded stuff not dangerous to health? Is that not why they created unleaded?  Thanks for the advice by the…   Read more»

@nsj Very nice. I love your little helper too! 😺

@nsj Looks great! I’ve used resin a lot, especially blue and green, it always looks good against the contrasting wood colour.

@nsj Thank you! Is the heel adjustment with Floyd just because of the clamping nut thingy beeing in the way at the headstock?

@nsj
Under starters orders again Neil. Looking forward to this one. Is there a wee YouTube video? 
🙏🙂🎸🎶

@nsj

@nsj 

 how sure are you? 

I’m as sure as absolutely certain.

@nsj Ha, superb. Nice collection.

@nsj
Very nice work again Neil. 
🙏🎶🙂🎸

@nsj Looks stunning as usual. 
Are you like me that your guitar collection is outgrowing the space in your house or do you sell your creations on? Do you make them for yourself or for customers? 

Awesome @nsj! That neck looks soo good. I generally prefer guitars without pickguard, but looking at these pictures, I realize that, for me, a strat looks weird without one 🤔  The back looks killer ! I love how the grain…   Read more»
