I often stick scraps together to make bigger pieces for cavity covers and headstock plates like this one.

Due to taking the lady shopping today I didn't get a lot done. My binding showed up though and looks a pretty good match to my pickups. Also my new bi...

Did some of the cutting out of the inner horns and planed the fretboard sides to make room for binding, so far so good.

@swepri I find getting the drills to go exactly where you want them can be a bit of a fight lol. Small bits with the hand drill aren't so bad, you jus...

Little bit more work today, did the slot for the pickup wiring so when I rout out the pickup cavities the channel will appear. I cut a lot of excess o...

Well today I finally made a start, worked everything out then got the truss rod slot sorted, fretboard pinned and headstock angle. Need to wait on bin...

@russ all stable, only ever had one where the neck warped and that was a very expensive piece of birds eye maple! Yet if I've used old floorboards etc...

@rathius I sat a 12 radius block on a 16 radius board, the gap was les than 0.2mm! Took me by surprise, there's so little in it. I do 12, 14 and 16 th...

@bpower thanks mate

And finished, the blue resin is perfect too, nice and subtle. Gotoh hardware, warman pickups, coil split with a 2.2k resistor to keep the split fatter...

@kalimar push pull is very simple and definitely the easy way to go. With the split wires that go to the split switch, I stick a 2.2k resistor inline,...

Not long now, sprayed the body today, now to leave it 24 - 48 hours then on to assembly.

@kalimar haven't a clue buddy, I stumbled in here after I'd started building.

@kalimar But your fender type bridge is easier because you don't need any neck angle, that bridge you have looks very simple and maybe good for a firs...

@kalimar I've done them with a 35mm blank doing a 3 + 3 headstock with a low angle and volute, worked great.

Welcome along

That's the neck glued in and post holes done, stil a bit more sanding then onto finish.

Frets all levelled, crowned and polished. Side markers done, everything sanded to 240 grit. Something went slightly off somewhere so the neck angle en...
