RE: In the beginning we mark the nut...

Stalled at the start line, so after deciding to go with the longer fretboard I needed a new longer truss rod, it arrived this morning but was the wrong one. I’d assumed “double action” what the same a...

I quite like it though! @tej I like it too, it’s asymmetrical now but there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s a different beast but it look balanced and I bet it would be really ergonomic to play. I do...

@tej This is the second Bandsman where I carved more of the bottom horn away. Attachment : EF5D5332-7C34-4563-B8A4-AB17E0BEE3CC.jpeg Attachment : 356915AD-6D7F-44A2-B023-2E9427B6BA7C.jpeg ...

Looks ACE ! If you want to adjust the horns for better access I would suggest something like this: Attachment : C54C869C-F1FD-407F-A296-42A4F4A6FB7A_1_201_a.jpeg

RE: In the beginning we mark the nut...

@markbailey so I’ve adjusted the design to take the 24 fret board into account the neck join as I have it would be from under fret 23 to the front of the neck pickup cavity, I think? So the part I was...

RE: In the beginning we mark the nut...
