@marcel That neck is beautiful, did you laminate it yourself ? or where did you get it from?I am considering making the laminated necks myself I am already looking for some wood at Masave, but I have ...

This morning, after making sure they fit seemlessly (a tiny bit of routing and some sanding) I glued the pieces of wood for the top together. Attachment : image.png Attachment : image.png ...

I did quite a bit today, including planing in a break angle into the body otherwise the action would have never been right, I glued the sawn off neck piece back on because I need to carve where the ne...

Looking Sharp! Very nice.

Coming along nicely there @marcel 🎸🙏🎶🙂

Made some progress today. First I've cut the fingerboard a bit shorter and narrower and with my router made it to 6 mm thickness. And sanded it flat. Attachment : image.png Attachment : ima...

I'm not a great fan of flat wounds. I have flat wounds on one of my fretless basses (the one I made many moons ago on the BYO course), but on all my other basses I use round wounds.

@marcel Yes!!!! LaBella flat wounds on a short scale. Short scales feels so comfy and I love building them.

Thank you very much

thanks, wait til you see the real one! this one's just the prototype, because I'm crazy I'll have to do it all again.

@tyreman I start working again on the renaissance guitar in september. If I find the time, I will start sanding for finishing before that. I just have too many things on my plate at the moment.

Hello @rey_rchotmail-com, a very warm welcome to you at Guitarmaking community.

Great start @tyreman. Keep those pictures coming. 🎶🙂🎸🙏

Nice! Looking forward to see the progress 🙂 Make sure to think about things thoroughly with a neck through, cause it aint easy to use a bandsaw , for instance, once the sides are glued in place.

Wow this looks amazing, keep it up.

any updates? amazing job so far, impressive craftsmanship shown here 👍

Then cut into shape on the bandsaw. Attachment : PXL_20221104_094805768.jpg 🙂🎶🙏🎸

Onto the sides now. I used cherry for the sides on this one. Planed and scraped down to 2.0 - 2.1mm thick. Attachment : PXL_20221103_134054841.jpg Attachment : PXL_20221028_143829287.jpg ...
