Had a bit of Neil Young, loud, this afternoon ...

Nice choice @Russ. Nonsuch is a great album - loved that when it came out, and I’m just about to play it again thanks to you!

Another one that I’ll have to watch on catch-up. Watched as far as the angle getting cut into the pocket. Why does everything just work, perfectly, and first time, when Mark does it? No templates sli...

Hi Gerard Congrats on signing up and your first post. 😀 Its a pretty friendly, supportive and helpful bunch here. Lots of other followers of the Bailey way - so lots of people having a lot of...

What could possibly go wrong? Whatever it is, let us know and someone will have a fix for it. 😆

I’d say that, as long as the quality of the joins are good - the wood is properly dry, jointed faces are properly clean, straight and scraped - and you’re using decent glue, it shouldn’t be an issue. ...

I've shared (some of) mine in various posts on here Some of the bigger learning opportunities; Here's the one where I routed the bridge pickup cavity where the bridge posts should have gone ... .....

I'll keep you posted with the next cock up That's only fair - I've shared (some of) mine in various posts on here - I seem to manage to create a "learning opportunity" every time I try to build somet...

I wouldn’t use a router for the round over - I’d just use some sandpaper. But, looking at your neck ... is the fretboard radiused yet? It looks quite flat. If not yet radiused, do that first as it m...

What I’d do .... A bit of round over on the top edge of the fretboard. That’ll blend the nick into the top of the fretboard, and won’t be noticeable. Some fine maple sawdust and glue, mixed togethe...

Reminder done - hope it helps 🙂

Been playing the whole album LOUD this morning ... There's no online video of my favourite track, so this one takes its place
