No decent photos anywhere to see how deep the spring holes are or the string guides either so maybe taking a bit off at the top is the only way to go?
Reckon it will be rock hard and take lots of work to trim down to size and agree that getting it milled at an engineering shop would save plenty of time and effort.
So began the process of assembly and starting the wiring. Fitting a set of Gregory "Cimmerian" pickups and keen to hear how they sound. really happy how its coming along.
Just have to do a fret level and polish and nut to virtually complete.
Only issue I have, regardless of how careful I am it seems every time I look another small dent has appeared somewhere on the body.
Must be bloody "Ding Fairies"
Looks fantastic, Tony. Super classy.
It's just so easy for something to slip under the body when you're working on it, even it it's placed on a soft towel or rubber mat. You are certainly not alone!
Looking really good there, VH.
Are you going to add a headstock logo?
Great job Tony. That looks really nice and something to be very proud of.
looks awesome Tony great job, look forward to seeing it strung up and hearing it play !
beautiful, that's all I've got
Love it!!! :)
brilliant build Tony, and some nice work arounds for the small glitches
I have exactly the same setup for the fret wire - same vice and same bender, you are obviously a man of class...
thicknesser question.... what model is it? I've been looking at getting one but everything seems too small for body blanks :(
