Interesting I’ve never seen a string break at the bridge on any instrument I guess on acoustic instruments it is indeed not a common issue. So yeah I can definitely see where you are coming from.On e...

@koendb Interesting I’ve never seen a string break at the bridge on any instrument

True but it is a potent string break point. I think some of the old 50s and 60s designs have a lot of room for improvement @rocknroller912 I dont think string break is the issue, but tuning stabilit...

@koendb True but it is a potent string break point. I think some of the old 50s and 60s designs have a lot of room for improvement

it will be rubbing on the side on the nut slot which isn’t good for tuning. @rocknroller912 Well on a Les Paul, none of the strings are ligning up with the nut. You just have to cut the nut with a l...

@koendb I think that moving the peg hole may cause an alignment problem with the nut as the string won’t be pulling in a straight line, it will be rubbing on the side on the nut slot which isn’t good ...

You could plug the hole and drill again where you wnt it. If you don't move it too far, the washer will cover the repair @Robin Yes indeed. I 'll decide that just before final sanding and finishi...

@koendb but it would have looked a bit nicer if that one came in a bit more from the center. You could plug the hole and drill again where you wnt it. If you don't move it too far, the washer will c...

Today, I testfitted the tuners and discovered a small design flaw in my headstock. I should have left a bit more space on a few pegholes, they are rather close to the edge, and, the one for the G stri...

Well, some pictures are in the wrong cronological order 🙂 Yesterday, I flattened the headstock and neck. But apparently, during my rough cut on the bandsaw, I went in to deep on the headstock at one...

Last week I progressed quite a bit for this build Got my laminated neck blank from G&W . Attachment : IMG_20210721_181443172.jpg Made a headstock template Attachment : IMG_20210721_1816...

where can I find his livestreams can see a link from Here too them. Am I missing the obvious Here? @tej: Workshop Weekend Sunday Special !! Building a guitar at home - Making a Thru Neck Guitar

you want/need consistant clamping pressure across the wood and that’s going to be hard with a profile cut into it. On the other hand pretty unwieldy to cut once the next is attached though with adequa...

@koendb But your wings should already be roughly shaped. So this is one of the parts I was really unsure with, I’d assumed you wouldn’t cut them to shape as I’d expect you want/need consistant clamp...

I’m sure Mark did a live stream on neck through construction. @rocknroller912 where can I find his livestreams can see a link from Here too them. Am I missing the obvious Here?

I challenge you to cut those horns with a router. @rocknroller912 or perhaps a sharp spoon!?

@koendb I’m sure Mark did a live stream on neck through construction.

Ok if it’s too quiet I’m up for stirring the pot. I challenge you to cut those horns with a router.

I’m not familiar with the approach for neck though, at what point do you join the wings on to the neck? @Tej I don't know yet. This would be my 3th scratch build and first one with a neck through.Thi...

@koendb so what’s the plan for getting the build done, I’m not familiar with the approach for neck though, at what point do you join the wings on to the neck? My next build is, in my head, to be neck ...
