@koendb I would say no matter which construction method that you choose, go with something around 10-12 degrees. I think those Gibson 15-17 degree headstocks look cool but they are just too much. For ...

My scarf joints are 12 degrees. I like it, for it makes bending strings a breeze.

Looking for advice on the headstock angle of my next project, which is a 1958 Flying V. I would say clone, but for the headstock angle, I am willing to compromise in favor of practicallity and strengt...

Sounds reasonable but in this instance I was following the course in number and type of clamps. I’ll bear it in mind next time. It seems to have worked out reasonably well for a first attempt but room...

so I can annoy bats with my solos. @jonhodgson Bats as well now? 😳 🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆

The fretboard is hanging over by 1-2mm on the bass side after about the 14th fret. I stressed about it for a couple of days but resolved to the fact I never play those frets anyway With you on that o...

That means you used too much glue @cheesewhisk and that’s possibly why your fretboard got off center, it was too slippery. It's not my usual behaviour, but I'd have to agree with @mattbeels just thi...

I stressed about it for a couple of days but resolved to the fact I never play those frets anyway What an odd person. I feel slightly cheated if I have fewer than 24 frets, 21 frets on a modern guita...

Ah not too horrific, only glued the neck but the cork fell apart when I tried to wipe it away so I just left it on. There’s enough meat on the neck to remove it later Attachment : 8F0A7765-5925-4...

Squeeze out for days. That means you used too much glue @cheesewhisk and that’s possibly why your fretboard got off center, it was too slippery. Practice glueing up some scrap boards aiming for a ni...

@cheesewhisk It sounds like a sticky experience.

Squeeze out for days. Also even though I checked, double checked, screwed holes and hammered nails, I still managed to glue it slightly offset.

It should be okay with cork @cheesewhisk. Did you have too much squeeze out? 🤔 At least you manage to fix it. 👍 🙂🎸🎶🙏

In between work and taking the cat to the vet, I’ve been sanding this ridiculous thing today, I’ll flow coat it over the weekend. P600 grade on the sander. 👍 Attachment : 4CE5499A-AC4E-4C4...

And you'd want to do your own thing with the control cavity and layout anyway. Won't you?? @tv101 No probs, I can make a cavity routing template, it’s not too critical to get the shape absolutely cn...

Angle grinder! (seriously) @jonhodgson I got these recently for my angle grinder, one concave, one convex. 😁 Fun times. Attachment : ABBEAA4C-6A5D-4924-A407-0F3DEB2B8E0E.jpeg Attac...
