@tv1, @russ, @mattbeels, @Boo, @Koendb, @rocknroller912, (@russ),@tv1, @russ, @mattbeels, @Boo, @Koendb TY, I’ve modified the top upper bout to not have the cut-away horn, instead, it’s going to have a continuous radii to the neck – similar to a Gibson Les Paul junior. I’ve ordered several parts, still waiting on…   Read more»

@rocknroller912 Oh don’t worry about it, I’ll pick one up sometime. Thanks. 👍

@rocknroller912 thanks for the advice, I’m a little wary of using water on the off chance it sneaks in anywhere to be honest though I guess we’re not talking a lot here! The product instructions I’ve since found do say…   Read more»

I’m sure Mark did a live stream on neck through construction.

I challenge you to cut those horns with a router.

@rocknroller912 or perhaps a sharp spoon!?

@steveadams I think that rescue looks really good! I agree with @bpower and @rocknroller912.

@rocknroller912 that was the plan!
