Correct me if I'm wrong, but jarrod, you've don't stacks of by hand scratchies hey? It's just a progression.

I have done two by hand and done alot home work on the science of building a high quality guitar and how and what woods / finishes / set ups / strings and even hardware really effects the instrument and ofcause I take on board any advice from DB and Gavmiester give
What have I actually learn't ?
I should have just stopped at my first kit guitar lol....

Could think of far worse things to spend money on. I've been you tubing cnc tonight. Oh my gosh they're amazing. There is a schecter factory tour where they give you the run down on the cnc procedures. Same as what you've said, it does nothing until you tell it to, but all the finishing is by hand, it's just a computerised router. If it speeds up the process why not I reckon. It takes a special kind of person to tell if it's been cnc'd or hand routed. DB Defs could, but I'd have no idea, just as the majority of the players out there wouldn't. Keep it up mate, I love when you post updates on your scratchies.
Just need an 8 string 😉
Well pleasing to my ear DB and Wokks came around and had a play on my first Nebular. Wokks took to it so naturally and smashed some nice tunes out of her. DB put a retail price tag on it of $3000 . I wanted an opinion from the master and he didn't let me down. Nice playing by the way Wokks.
Yhep.... Nebular mk1 has a really sweet tone and there is only one way these babies can go and that is to get better..
But my fav axe is the fully chambered Telemonster, man is she schweeeeeeeeeet
As for me going down the cnc path, I could prolly build three or four axes in the time it would take me to work out how to switch the thing on let alone program it
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
By the way DB I still havn't made the kitchen cupboard doors lol...
