I was thinking about this only today, is shielding paint necessary/ advised?

@cheesewhisk Yes it’s pretty much standard in quality guitars these days and Mark uses the Stew Mac brand. A while ago there was a discussion on the live stream about finding cheaper alternatives to b...

On the subject of Imperial v Metric. Does anyone know if there is any need for Imperial drill bits or can I always use Metric? 🙂🙏🎸🎶

Ahh. The plan unfolds @boo. 🎶🎸🙏🙂

OK, here we go. I still need to route it flush with the top but I made a routing template for the wooden plate that I’ll bond and pin in to cover the neck joint. I’ll then use more high build primer t...

@russ Sharon is great I listen to her a bit as well. She posts on Facebook and reads all the comments that people make, during lockdown anyway. She even replies sometimes. Last year she did a challeng...

It doesn’t matter where we are all from, so long as we are all having fun here. The world needs love right now because people like Plump (and others) are trying to divide us with hate. We are all diff...

Hey @rocknroller912. I was just watching the lovely Sharon Shannon on Fleadh TV this morning. 🎶🎸🙏🙂

My favourite tune, can’t wait to get back playing this in the pub. Don’t tell tv101 there’s a banjo at the back.

@mattbeels I take your point but Trump was beyond a joke. My ex girlfriend who lives in South Carolina thinks the reason he has orange hair is because the sun shines on him all the time. My perceived ...

I was joking about imperial to be fair. I use metric because that's what we were taught at school. Many, many moons ago. But yeah certain things you just use imperial because it's the standard ie 25" ...

Use what works @cheesewhisk! I mainly use metric but somethings (especially string action and fretwire) I use imperial. Although when I measure action on a concert guitar I use metric 🤷Ἷ...

So it's okay that I use imperial? Got it, cheers.

at least you don't have to deal with @mattbeels @tv101 🍻😘

Thanks @rocknroller912 ✊ However I find that Americans tend to have a pretty good sense of humor, they elected Trump after all! Now about that driving thing, in America (and about 70% of the w...

@tv101 I don’t feel offended people never want to chat to me

@tv101 I’m used to dealing with American sense of humour at least Matt has one. Most Yanks don’t and they all drive on the wrong side of the road as well. I’ve been there a few times and still get int...
