@jonhodgson I think Bailey would be a good place to get a quote from. Mark has the best finish on any guitars I’ve seen and probably the longest lasting due to it being oil based.

@rocknroller912 I doubt very much he'd go for an oil finish. He just commented he might want to go for the same colour as his AC Cobra replica, which I can see working. Attachment : steves_cobra...

First time making a neck through. Nervous... Watching this! I am also thinking about a neck tru as my next project!

@steveadams I know this is stating the obvious but no one has said it yet. The difficulty you will have fitting another inlay if you can’t get a clean channel is that the centre has been removed so us...

if only I thought that would work. Maybe I'll think about building one. Well... on a good note, I get to work off some of that covid weight. 🙂

@steveadams Oh Steve that's a bit of a bummer. Sorry I can't give any advice but I've got every faith that you are going to come up with a solution. The bracing does look great. Keep it up. 🙂...

I've just got a couple of Screwfix Titan 1400W vacuums - had one but moving it around was a pain as I have two rooms - the power take off works and it keeps dust down - still wear a mask - looked at o...

@steveadams I feel your pain. I’m trying sound hole inlays with a dremel after years of using hand cutters and am not having success either.

@steveadams Oh, you look so disappointed, just pull yourself together and think of the fun you're going to have finding a way to fix it. I can't offer you any advice as I haven't built an acoustic ye...

I sold 😥 my Mexican Strat - I got it very cheaply on eBay - lots of fret wear on frets 1 to 6 on the top three strings - one piece maple neck with varnish on fretboard - I thought that I might...
