I know I'm a couple weeks late to the party here, but from reading your post and seeing the picture my thoughts were pretty much exactly what Mark and Robin have already said. Filling the large gouge ...

cherry is beautiful wood tv1, love the way it ages and gets darker with exposure to light over time.

Great to see a completely new design - and loved the video too. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video must be worth quite a few pictures! I used cherry, oiled finish, for one of my f...

Just figured I'd share this with you guys. Today I made a fret slotting jig in preparation for the next build. That's right, I'm not going to use a pre-made board this time. The supplier that I buy mo...

It may well be heresy to post this here, but the PRS SE range is - IMHO - probably the best VFM standard guitar range available. Design, quality of materials, finishing, components, set-ups. I've ...

@norriemac I'm fairly sure that at 12mm it's still strong enough, but better wait for the experts to advise you on that. Adding your 3mm olive wood will certainly give you the thickness you need and ...

Hello again all Hope you are all doing well. Just a quick question, I am building an OM acoustic. I was thicknessing the headstock and I was doing my last pass when my router bit slipped and took off ...

what an amazing flim, I really love classical guitars, might have to take a trip to spain for that class one day.

My favourite song today:

@kevin-turvey I think one coat of sealer should work for both as it’s thick but each piece of wood is different so instructions are not always 100% accurate. The important thing is to have a smooth m...
