I was thinking of doing a bass next, haven't done one yet.

@robin sounds like the switch is dirty, before pulling apart try some violent switching or switch cleaner then some violent switching. Bad switch is the only thing that makes sense otherwise the neck ...

@tv101 just cut teeth in a piece of the tubing and use it to cut all the marker holes. It's on my todo list, my HUGE todo list lol

I decided to tackle the first oak top carve top I did, fret markers were wonky and I didn't think they looked particularly good. Also the body could've been sanded better. I'd already stripped it to u...

Modify it, I do it all the time. I'm never aiming for an exact shape, just similar lol

Getting near the finish now, just the electronics to fit then a few set up tweaks Attachment : 20230907_162513.jpg Attachment : 20230907_175447.jpg

@boo Cheaper kramers were plywood with a veneer on the back and front. As for the weight, ply varies, can have a lot of air pockets unless it's really posh ply lol

@boo well now I have a car that does over 60mpg I may just have to pop over lol

@tv101 Audio assault buddy, soooo cheap and they sound great!

@russ well at 52 I'm struggling lol. But once you get past the sound in and out part the amps are just like amps with all the control layouts like a regular amp, same with the podals. But trying to a...

@tv101 using traction waveform just now, seems decent. You can do looping etc with it as well as mastering and all that jazz. Most seem to have free plugins but it's the amp sounds that are missing...

I've been getting into or trying to get into playing the guitar through the pc. I have an audient id4 mk2 interface and a pair of yamaha hs5 monitors. Still figuring stuff out but at least I'm startin...

@tv101 good thinking!

@koendb Cheers, I use a bowl and dish router bit. Sort of trace the outline of the inner horns on paper then draw a nice circular shape and finally cut out an mdf template which i fine tune. Works gre...

@boo this is me slowed down or it'd be finished by now! 🤣

Today I g ot the round over done, cavity sorted and made the slot for the blade switch. Used the router dremmel attachment and a straight edge as a guide. Attachment : 20230828_171248.jpg At...
