Well, you can’t complain at that for a tenner can you really. These are the types of bargains that everyone should look out for and use for practicing repainting. Get the paint cans out and spray some...

You sound a little disappointed there. Remember, that's not any old plywood. That's special Chinese plywood.

Attachment : DB2CE612-9E44-427B-A6B7-496AEE6DE91A.jpeg Seriously disappointed. The body is plywood. For a tenner I would have expected two piece alder at the very least, and preferably mahogany. A...

@boo Accepted your request thanks. I wondered who it was and nearly declined as I’m getting bombarded with scammers at the moment.

@rocknroller912 Interesting, I’m glad I bought a decent amount of it during covid lockdown. I’ve just sent you a friend request on FB 👍 Jack Ell

And - before you make your next mistake - check with Bill first.

I agree with @Boo. Firstly because it'd mean more work for James, but secondly (and, TBH, the main reason) because you want to do the job right if possible, and this isn't too hard to fix. I'd remove ...

If I could rescue the neck and get a replacement fingerboard that might be the way forward. If I don’t, I still have to clean up the fingerboard edge where it almost got stuck to the caul. But of cour...

I would see how things line up as in can you still make the neck to the shape you intended. I haven't had much luck separating titebond glued things. Tend to cause more harm than good.

I used Titebond Original. Thing is, technically, the only thing that’s going to be squint is the tuner holes. The neck hasn’t been profiled and the body hasn’t been built yet, so everything with the ...

@boo Ive learned the hard way

@rocknroller912 Smart arse! 😂

@jamesbisset I know I’m a smart ass being wise after the event but I use water based glue for anything I might want to remove.

I asked GPTChat too: If you've glued your guitar fingerboard to the neck, and it's misaligned, there are a few things you can try to fix the issue: Remove the fingerboard: This is...

I would be tempted to heat up the board and remove it, 1.5mm is a lot I think. You could redraw your centre line but it will throw the nut out as well and may cause a problem with the strings leaving ...

I glued and clamped the fingerboard to the neck yesterday. This morning, after taking the clamps and caul off, I find the fingerboard has twisted off axis by about 1.5mm. I reckon it happened like th...

Bargaintastic Mr B! Ideal platform for messing about with pickups 'n' stuff. And shouldn't need much TLC to get it playing nicely. Like the old joke about how to double the value of a Lada (fill th...

That’ll do nicely. 🙂

Wow, wow and some more wow Koen. Great skills, and a beautiful instrument that you're building.

That looks like a nice piece of timber there Bill - should really pop when you get the oil on it.
