Attachment : EB5E2AEC-AF0C-4D1A-8C8F-AFDAC7AEA7D2.jpeg @tv101 I can’t work out how to upload a picture of the mandolin. It doesn’t seem to work whatever I try!

Here is the mandolin uploaded (hopefully). I should also say that the bridge I mentioned that lifted was from tangle wood guitar I had and not one I made.

@tv101 oh, I’ll try an upload my photo again, thanks for letting me know! I suppose the baritone part doesn’t have anything to do with it really, all I was thinking was that it would mean that I woul...

Hi @PJ and welcome to the forum. Congrats on finishing the mandolin build. I don't think your pic attachment quite worked though, and we always like to see the photos of each other's work! Have you s...

@boo well now I have a car that does over 60mpg I may just have to pop over lol

@tv101 Audio assault buddy, soooo cheap and they sound great!

I'm a pc guy so stick with that myself, tracktion waveform is free which is cool lol. Anyway can you tell what era I grew up in 🤣

@russ @boo I bet you both could get into the DAW/plugin/recording world quite easily. It looks scary and confusing from the outside, and it can be incredibly complex from the inside, but it's reasona...

Stunning work Russ - the detail, the precision and the woodworking skills. I noticed a few jigs and techniques in your very detailed write-up that I thought I'll probably adopt if I ever get the ner...

@russ well at 52 I'm struggling lol. But once you get past the sound in and out part the amps are just like amps with all the control layouts like a regular amp, same with the podals. But trying to a...

@sanjeevmansotra thank you for your kind comments!

I appreciate your work in creating this masterpiece. Your fingers must dance on the fretboard, creating melodies that touch the soul. The way you would wield the six strings is pure magic! Your strumm...

@jamesbisset Oh, Dremel and freehand are things that usually don't mix well when I am involved. 😀 Great progress, looking forward to see the finished guitar.

Another minor complication: Once the back is glued in place, there’s no way inside other than through the pickup routs or the ƒ holes. so my graceful mini-humbuckers mounted straight into the top don’...

Sshhhh... 🤫🤥

I have to say, working in the Bailey Workshop is both a privilege and a joy. I’m beginning to see a possible route out of the world of Bodge across the border into Craft. Talking of borders, there was...

@tv101 I shall heed your warning and take your advice on this one I think. As exciting as it would be building my own amp, a bit more experience would do me a few favours really. Like you said, there...

@boo I put together a few pedal kits first, for the soldering practice as much as anything. They’re also a *lot* cheaper (and less dangerous!) than building a valve amp, so seemed like a sensible pro...

@tv101 Holy £ucK! Well done sir! I really want to have a go at this now. Electronics and my soldering skills are dire, it’s my worst area of skill level. I am inept in every way and it’s probably wha...

@tv101 good thinking!
