mighty quiet in here of late!? Yes it is really quiet the last couple of weeks. I guess life is catching up again 🙂

@koendb v4 for me 😬 If you still had an asymmetrical end but took the curve from the lower wing through the neck end into the top wing I think that might look best, to me at least. So it would...

The bridge is already decided and I have it in my drawer 🙂 I think a bridge with a separated tail piece is a stupid idea, if I were you I’d have a look in your drawer to see if you have somet...

You could always use a bridge with a separate tailpiece to occupy some of the bump? The bridge is already decided and I have it in my drawer 🙂I just need to alter the plan

@koendb You could always use a bridge with a separate tailpiece to occupy some of the bump?

Had to contemplated taking the angle from the centre line incorporating the end on the neck into it? AS a matter of fact, I did. But You do have a point though, if you look on the original drawing, t...

@koendb I think what doesn’t sit right is the curve into the flat end of the neck then the angled take off on the top wing, it doesn’t look intentional. Hard to explain where I’m coming from here. Had...

I’d make the angle the top wing comes off the bridge end of the through neck more shallow, it looks a bit harsh to me which doesn’t quite work when the other wing smoothly curves. @Tej thx for the co...

@koendb like it! A couple of points, personally I’d make the angle the top wing comes off the bridge end of the through neck more shallow, it looks a bit harsh to me which doesn’t quite work when the ...

This is what I came up with reshaping an existing plan Attachment : NeckTrough-1.png

I’ve only ever owned 25.5” scale guitars, I tried to play as SG copy that had a shorter scale length and simply couldn’t play anything well at all, felt very alien everything being that little bit out...

24.75" scale length is indeed easier for bending. Same strings feel less stiff then a 25.5" scale length. I guess 25" is a good compromise and probably the shortest scale length to allow for 24 frets...

Interesting you talk about scale length and which to choose. I am in the process of starting another build and also changing the scale length. My previous build was a 24.75 scale (Gibson Les Paul ...e...

A couple of months ago , I started drawing a body shape that I liked on a piece of scrap paper. Attachment : IMG_20210321_170221071.jpg I quite liked the idea and decided to start working out s...

@Boo that looks amazing! Awesome job

Wow. That is looking fantastic. Almost makes me want to make an electric guitar...... almost. 🙂
