Well hello there, after an uncooperative summer mixed with illness and isolation progress is now being made again. Top coats of finish now going onto ...

@rocknroller912 It’s a tricky one as generally people only experience glueing by practice/experimenting, rarely have I met someone who was taught what...

@rocknroller912 makes sense, the guitar I worked was given to me to play with ultimately so it didn’t matter if I happened to ruin it entirely it wasn...

@rocknroller912 that’s true but I think they’re an invaluable learning resource. My first significant effort at fixing a guitar was when I was given o...

@rocknroller912 yeah very displeased with my Frankenfinish! I took to it with the random orbital in the end and took it right back finishing by hand w...

Sadly what I created was a mess @rocknroller912 I know what you’re getting at but that’s really not what it’d have come out like and is about as far a...

@robin I had done, it just looked a mess, really uneven texture and colour. Just need to suck it up and start again.

@rocknroller the headstock I’ve made is with two woods, neck is mahogany and the headstock is laminated both sides with rosewood. Or did you mean some...

I’ll have a look, maybe there are different brands I could try. Home crafted dry rub didn’t work well as it’s ultimately a big sticker. In the past, w...

…turns out I calculated the price wrong, A5 sheet in two colours was quoted to me at just under 170, now I really can’t justify that. Think I’ll just ...

@tv101 thanks for the feedback, that’s pretty much what I did in the end apart from moving the bass side back but the adjustment for. The test set up ...

Has anyone had success with DIY transfers, pricing up an A4 2 colour transfer sheet from approved is coming in at just under 100 which I just cant jus...

@tv101 sorry to hear things are tough at the moment, truly hope recovery for her is on the horizon, take care.

@tv101 I have some stain from there, decided against it for this build as it, well, just didn’t look right on the mahogany. It’s certainly a lot easie...

@tv101 what did you change to? The main reason I went with this is as I don’t need spray equipment. Have to say the results I had previously were exce...

@marcel loving that track!!

Lovely work 🙂🙂🙂
