RE: New build

I think that's me done the finish sanding now, been going back and forth looking for scratches to remove. Carves for the pots etc are all smoothed off too. And also got the holes drilled for the locki...

RE: CTS Pots, long or short shaft?

As @nsj say, regular length shafts should be ok. The threaded part of a normal pickup switch is probably about the same length as well. Check the thickness around the holes regularly while routing the...

RE: Back bow on a neck carve

@usadave You could spend ages messing about with it, using various methods but it’s not worth it for me. I would just start again with a new blank. Don’t throw this one out or burn it, you can use it ...

RE: Back bow on a neck carve

RE: New build

Today I got on with doing the recesses for the controls aswell as the jack socket. I like using the barrel jacks, I fit a wedge of wood in the cavity so the nut can sit flat and be tightened easily. W...

RE: Back bow on a neck carve

Newbie answer here. I would leave it for a couple of days to see where it settles. If it gets worse, then the decision would be easy. The string pressure will pull it a tiny bit straighter and maybe t...

RE: Back bow on a neck carve

I'd be a little worried in that the neck has immediately shown such definite bow tendencies - suggests that it's not a very stable piece of wood, and that you might be forever tweaking the truss rod t...
