@robin interesting! I'll look out for your thoughts. I've got the crimson water based wipe on finish to experiment with, but not tried it yet.

@robin looking good! What finish are you going for?

@brie Congratulations Brian. It’s such a good feeling isn’t it? The guitar looks great and I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the process. I agree with @nsj What are you doing here? Get back in the workshop an...

@swepri Yes there’s a special feeling to playing something you’ve made. There’s also that strange mixture of feelings when I finish a project, part pride and satisfaction and part disappointment that ...

@nsj I’m getting used to the weight of it, maybe I’m building up my muscles!!🤣🤣 Not sure that my good lady would be too chuffed with me building 19 guitars, future projects may need to...

@brie Good work! Nothing beats playing your own instruments for the first time.

What are you doing on here? Get back in the shed and start number 2! 🤣 Guitar looks good, weights fine. Anything lighter than a les paul is fine lol I started at the beginning of the whol...

@markbailey Thanks for your kind words Mark, I would have been very reluctant to start on such an endeavour without your fantastic videos and the end result would not have been of the same quality. I ...

@liebe Thanks Dan, having a rest for a while, at least until the weather is a bit warmer, then get going on the next one👍😃🎸

Great job Brian 👍 - Thanks for sharing the pics...and for your kind words...makes it all worthwhile!

@brie good work! I often look at the acoustic course, but find myself building 'just one more' electric!

Well done @robin. I think it's wise to be more cautious. Even though it gives you more work on the scraping it has given you a good learning experience and more understanding and confidence for doing ...

@russ Thanks Russ, bit on the heavy side but otherwise I’m well pleased with it. Going to have a look at the acoustic course but I think I’ll probably do another electric come the spring time.👍...

@robin Thanks Robin, it’s been a blast and I really only want to have look at the Acoustic course, honest!!🤣🤣 Thing is, you know how you always have bits left over when you finish a jo...

Hi Everyone, Must say I’m as proud as punch today having finished my first attempt at building an electric guitar from scratch. Thanks to Mark’s fantastic course, I’m now the proud owner of a guitar t...

@russ Thanks the banjo has gone back to its owner now and my stress level has gone back down. Difficult with jobs like this not to make the repair more than the cost of the instrument. Free wood help...

Hope it all turns out well @robin. Nice work. 🙂🎶🎸🙏

Nice work @rocknroller912. I think it's harder doing repairs than building from scratch so very well done with that one. 🎸🙂🎶🙏

Forgot to add a pic of the old broken neck Attachment : IMG_6367.jpeg

Latest project finished yesterday, metal body banjo with a completely broken neck. The only thing holding it together was the FB. Made a new neck and added rosewood binding to make it wider due to the...
