hi guys,
Finally got the headstock shaped this morning. It's always the most nervous part of the build for me (TBH any woodworking is a worry) but now all the woodworking is done!
As usual, I used the LP headstock template from here: http://www.australianlespaulforums.c.../Headstock.pdf.
Also as usual, it didn't quite fit the blank, but I just shifted it up until the sides met.
A bit or work with the jigsaw, the bastard file and slapwheel and she was finished. I even managed to not knock off one of the "wings" with the file this time - bonus! I'm reasonably happy with the results. It's one of my better attempts with this template.
I'm thinking of doing a gloss black headstock with the neck stained the same colour as the back and sides of the body. Not sure - my plans always seem to change.
cheers,
Gav.
