Looks great @boo! I really like the heel carve. Very classy, top work!
That's a really fun design, interested to see this one turns out!
@somethingnicer ah good news! You could stay with 2 pickups and use a push pull as a pickup selector. But as you've gone back to your original plan...
Hi @somethingnicer, I'm presuming you've drilled the hole for the switch, but not routed out the cavity for the switch and that's what you're wantin...
Hi @boo, I've not built one myself, but there's certainly PRS guitars factory made with FR bridges at 25" scale. I don't know if Gibson factory make...

Hey @russ, thanks for the reply and suggestions. Do you have any experience of these machines? I can use a plane to a degree, but my skills are limi...
@jamesbisset it's looking awesome! A proper jazz box and love the headstock detail.
Thanks @tv101! A slow and steady process by hand. I think having z-poxy as a sealer helped stabilise the top and helped the crispness of the line.
You've all been very good builders, so you can have an update from me as a reward😅 I've got the necks glued on two of the builds on, with th...
