@robin Having seen various embarrassing photos in which something unintended for the photo is caught in a reflection from something in the photo - you had me worried for a second there 😆 It's ...

Thanks @bpower - nature is a wonderful thing!

@tv101 oohhh... I love the coloring on that wood. Sweet. 🙂

The wiring is now done, the passed the screwdriver-tap-on-the-pickups test for the magnetics. First time! 👍 (That doesn't always happen!) Went to attach the neck so I could string it up ...

I've got some piezo-equipped saddles there,to feed a Graphtech Ghost system. The wires from the saddles feed under the bridge pickup surround, via some grooves made in the base of the surround. You ca...

Operation new neck is fully under way, I can do the carving etc but I'm going to buy one of those crazy long radius blocks like Mark uses to do the radius and levelling out of the board. Attachment...

Decided after a bit of googling to have a go at roasting some maple, did gas mark 5.5 for an hour or so then gas mark 7 for 30 minutes. I cut a scarf joint so it'd fit in the oven lol Attachment : ...
