Still needs curtains ... you must have some old ones hanging around someplace??
With apologies for my poor mouse control (and hence the extra 0.043mm on the lateral dimension!), here's a blow up of the black dot that you see at th...
@Tej I was curious, and have too much time on my hands, so I just drew out the dimensions of a 12" and 14" radius circle, aligned them both to the t...
OK - it's a lovely flat piece of Ash .... firewood then. Or it goes in the big box of "that'll come in handy one day" bits ... you've got the space ...
I’m glad it’s a good thing. I should have caveated the "good thing" comment with "that's just my opinion, other opinions are equally valid" 🤣 ...
Rumour is that reads your sub-conscious and types what you're thinking ...
So what colour/s will it be when you've finished it?? 🤣 Looking very boo-ish! (That's a good thing btw).
If you file the string slots in the saddle deeper, then you'll be able to create a 12" radius from what starts out as a 14" radius bridge. You can't ...
Totally agree. Most famous players have their sound, doesn't matter what pickups are on what guitar, through which amp, they still sound like you ex...

How many other threads have you got here? I was watching your other (other) thread for updates on this Strat. And then I found it here, on another ...
@rocknroller912 (& @mattbeels). There's a story to this guitar. When I did my first BYOG workshop course (2007), we all stayed on-site, and sa...
That suggests that you don't consider *us* to be your friends, 😫 Sounds like a good thing that you're doing Boo. Again.
That is indeed the hard way! Respect to those who have the skills to achieve that with hand tools. 👍
@mattbeels - when I eat at Michelin restaurants, I don't (often) tell the chef what salt to use.
So, now what are you going to make from that nice flat piece of Ash?
OK, maybe i did change the strings. But I wound them properly, according to the teachings.
Ahhhhhhh @mattbeels, but I didn't make that one. It was created for me, by a guitar making genius, using special magic, known only to a master of ...
PS, where are the curtains?
Too tidy to be a workshop!
