Thanks for posting JB. I've got one of those Eggles, though mine's a lot later and slightly less official. Great guitars, very well put together, n...
Looking at those pics and remembering happy days in the workshop ... I'm getting an urge 😉 Looking good Bill. Those fretboard markers are a nice ...
Looks like I can't multi-quote in a reply 🙁 That comment reminded me of something I was planning on trying. It looks like a simple enough techniqu...
Congrats on managing to do that. You need a well set-up bandsaw and a decent blade to get that done successfully. I've tried a few times but genera...

Probably well past time! I've got some windows to finish repairing and then paint today though 🙁 Got to get those jobs done whilst the weather is...
