Still needs curtains ... you must have some old ones hanging around someplace??

With apologies for my poor mouse control (and hence the extra 0.043mm on the lateral dimension!), here's a blow up of the black dot that you see at the top of the first image, just to the left of cent...

@Tej I was curious, and have too much time on my hands, so I just drew out the dimensions of a 12" and 14" radius circle, aligned them both to the top point of the circle, and measured the height diff...

Hi TV, Actually not that nice if you look closely! It has significant worm damage down one side OK - it's a lovely flat piece of Ash .... firewood then. Or it goes in the big box of "that'll come in ...

That's a good thing btw I’m glad it’s a good thing. I should have caveated the "good thing" comment with "that's just my opinion, other opinions are equally valid" 🤣 Just imagine if no-on...

The edit function really needs fixing!! Rumour is that reads your sub-conscious and types what you're thinking ...

Attachment : image.png So what colour/s will it be when you've finished it?? 🤣 Looking very boo-ish! (That's a good thing btw).

Curious as to why I’d need to file the slots though? So from a glace it doesn’t look like they will adjust in height after all. If you file the string slots in the saddle deeper, then you'll be abl...

so much more of the sound depends on what you plug it into Totally agree. Most famous players have their sound, doesn't matter what pickups are on what guitar, through which amp, they still sound lik...

I just noticed that bridge has a 14” radius, are you aware of that? I don’t know which radius you’re planning on your board but if it’s a 12 then a 14 will be a tad flat. Seriously @mattbeels (serio...

see other thread How many other threads have you got here? I was watching your other (other) thread for updates on this Strat. And then I found it here, on another other thread. Anyways, I keep ...

Professional builders aren’t offended by customers having specific requirements like no black plastic. @rocknroller912 (& @mattbeels). There's a story to this guitar. When I did my first BYOG wor...

I will be asking my friends too. That suggests that you don't consider *us* to be your friends, 😫 Sounds like a good thing that you're doing Boo. Again.

First job is making the blank flat and level and not having a drum sander it’s all done the old way with hand planes. That is indeed the hard way! Respect to those who have the skills to achieve that...

Seriously though, why didn’t you specify no BLACK PLASTIC? @mattbeels - when I eat at Michelin restaurants, I don't (often) tell the chef what salt to use.

So, now what are you going to make from that nice flat piece of Ash?

OK, maybe i did change the strings. But I wound them properly, according to the teachings.

I completely agree but... ? Ahhhhhhh @mattbeels, but I didn't make that one. It was created for me, by a guitar making genius, using special magic, known only to a master of the guitar building ...

PS, where are the curtains?

Too tidy to be a workshop!
