@david-johnson09 @tv1010101 It sounds like a little bit of heaven really. Feeling relaxed, having a laugh, learn some new stuff, making friends with n...

@david-johnson09 OK, point taken, I’ll put it on my list. I think the online course is fantastic but the picture you have painted of the workshop expe...

@russ Welcome the guitar making revolution, it’s not just a hobby, it’s a way of life. You don’t need luck when @markbailey is your teacher! Happy bui...

@david-johnson09 Yeah I agree. Do you think we all need to start kneeling and praying, pointing towards the Bailey workshop, wherever we are in the wo...

@mezi Welcome, I’ve only just seen this post. I think you will love it here, a bunch of like-minded people obsessed with guitars and guitar making.

@tv1010101 Sadly I still haven’t visited @markbailey and Carol at the workshop. I did the online electric guitar build course a few years ago and I’ve...

@david-johnson09 That a good plan, I hadn’t noticed that. Cheers.

@marcel Again, an amazing bass guitar and such a kind person you are, gifting it to a fellow musician. I had a Honer Jack headless 5 string bass years...

@clinton Nice guitar builds. It is interesting taking on two builds at once, I did it recently too. I concentrated on on closer to the end as I nearly...

@tv1010101 That is a stunning build and a wonderful collection, impressive work.

@tv1010101 I’m glad it’s not just me that mods things all the time, I can’t seem to leave things alone.

@darrenking Yep, I’ve noticed this too and keep meaning to mention it. The only way I can keep up with all the posts is to click the “Subscribe to thi...

@darrenking Oh I see! Well, yeah I suppose you could, it’s quite a nice idea. I could run into a problem with bridge pickup if the guitar has a trem, ...

@darrenking This is my Ibanez JEM with direct mount pickups, also wood screws. The clear scratch plate has no functional purpose, it’s purely aestheti...

I don’t mind having the cavity visible, it’s pretty cool! This is my Ibanez PGM Signature with no pickup rings but using wood screws for the direct...

@darrenking Yeah I know what you mean, that’s how Strats hold their pickups but what happens when someone asks for no pickup rings and no scratch plat...

@darrenking For me Darren it’s just aesthetic really, just to get rid of the pickup rings. There are a lot of ‘80 metal guitars without pickup rings a...

That was a really bad sentence!
