Well, for introductions, I'm going to use the handle Pocoranch7, my all time favorite band lads is/was a band called POCO, of which the [founding member] last man standing of the original band-mates, ...

now with a small chip too so I’ll need to reprofile the edge and wrap the headstock with something to protect while I carve the neck. I gave up caring about tear out and small dings and chips, caus...

Looks great to me @tej. 👍🙂 🙏🎸🎶🙂

@tej looks like you have put the clamps directly onto the headstock. Putting a solid block in between would be needed if you start with a thinner veneer. Moisture in the glue can cause a thin piece to...

And it is DONE! Ah no it isn't .. I forgot to install the side dots ! So still one little job to do ( and a proper fret end dressing, I couldnt be bothered at 3:00 am this morning ) 😉 Color i...

This afternoon, I installed the bridge, drilled the holes for the strings, installed the ferrules ( a much much cleaner result this time! )I've put strings on the guitar, filed a little notch in the s...

Everything seems to be ok with the glueing! Removed the clamps, installed the vintage Kluson tuners as well Attachment : IMG_20210526_091304970.jpg

You can use contact cement @koendb but that can make it harder to remove, if need be. Or possibly a rubber adhesive...
