Drawing Guitar Plans

[FrankenWashie]

What pickup configuration and bridge would you guys use?

Also if I have space I'll include the template for the hollow body version with F hole on the same plan.

I'll do the drawing for the PRS standard routes and then I'll do a modified drawing so you have a template that works for that combo.

don’t go to that trouble mate, I can work and create templates from what you’ve already done. Don’t listen to Igor, he’s nuts!

Haha no worries. If you change your mind let me know.

Gentlemen is there anything else you need on this plan? Over time I'll finish making it "pretty" and draw in the pickups and bridge but does this cover everything you need to be able to actually build one?

Woltz, that looks legendary. I don;t think I;d add anything but I;ve never built from plans before. Maybe FW might let us know if we needed anything else.

Sounds good. I'll send it to you and FW can send me his email address and I'll send it to him.

Anyone else who wants this plan, just send me your email address and I'll send it to you.

Looks cool! Do you have the specs on the body thickness? I’ll PM my email across to you.

FW, I looked everywhere on the net and couldn't find a Vela S2 thickness dimension, but someone posted on the PRS forum that their S2 Starla was 42.25mm but it was difficult to see where the bevel came in to play.
Someone else posted that "S2 Singlecut Standard comes in right at 2 inches at the thickest part." which equates to 50.8mm

That ties up with the blueprint I have for the PRS 24, 2” at the area under the bridge. I suspect the neck break angle is similar to a 24 as well, 3 degrees or thereabouts.
It all adds up to some thick cap material or body blank, and a ton of carving.
The plantation mahogany I use is going to be pretty weighty, so I might have to see what else I can source, or else to it’s going to be chambered to heck.
So much to plan out with this style of build. Fun and games!
