@tv101 I did say that they were for practicing on so no, I’m not giving away beautiful, perfectly quarter cut maple neck blanks. I’m nice, but I’m not that nice!!

@tv101 eg Think thrice, measure twice, sleep on it, repeat steps 1&2, cut once? I can see a new T-Shirt in the GMUK online shop just in time for Christmas!

Hang on just a minute there … Christmas is *weeks* away … does this mean that there was some sort of announcement on today’s stream?? Are we going to be livestream-less until next year??
I must have missed that too.

@tv101 Now I remember. Still looks great. Quality is very good for your first build.

@tv101 I should have paid closer attention Tony. Have I seen some pictures of your first build somewhere on this forum? Something in the back of my mind tells me that I have. 🤔

@tv101 Yes I often consider that we a play thing do the gods (aliens). We are merely a creation made in their image, we are an experiment. They engineer our dna from time to time, that’s what abductions are. They… Read more»

Does that mean that you can recreate the carved top of a 59 LP?
@tv101 That sounds exciting @darrenking

@tv101 Yes I thought it looked like our Guitar Jedi Master’s workshop! It is an outstanding guitar and I am very pleased that you love it so much. It does inspire me to continue on this guitar building journey and… Read more»

@tv101
It does look stunning Tony, I’m guessing it was your first Bailey build. -

It’s pretty much a harmless hobby!
@tv101 I’m in debt but it’s nothing to do with guitars, honest! 😁

@tv101 Very droll! It’s not so much the banging, its the driving all those little wedges in with no way of countering the force they collectively apply. I might try squishing the tang a little with a pair of parallel… Read more»

There’s a guy in the US talks a good wall-build – and he’s looking for a new job.
If he can get my neighbour to pay for it, then the job is his.

@tv101 A quick search revealed the song was written in the 1920’s. The version you (and I) heard on the radio in the sixties was from The Sandpipers.

Anyone else still *buying* guitars, and if so … why? @tv101 I think the last one I bought was in about 2015 because I’ve always wanted one from being a kid. This is my Ibanez JEM 77P in Black and… Read more»
