That's looking a bit better.

looking awseome Barge, are you going to drill a fourth neck screw hole ?
This will be a very cool build and would get the Max seal of approval for sure !
Current Builds and status
scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck
Completed builds
scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in
Yep, will be drilling another hole, obviously I'll have to make up a custom neckplate now so I'll worry about the 4th hole once I've jimmied that up.Originally Posted by wokkaboy
Hopefully Max would approve, he's a pretty inspiring dude when it comes to thinking outside the box.

Looks nice man. Great lines.
Did you think any more about the upper carve and the veneer?
Cheers man.
Because I haven't got a router table and am unable to rout downhill on the elbow cut, I'm gonna have to try and cut that particular section by hand using a blade.
There's every chance of catastrophic failure but I have no other option.
And that was a fruitful day of sanding. She's all taken back to 400 and looking nice
Now waiting on maple veneers now so I can make the top all pretty.
Looks amazing Bargey! Great lines...
cheers,
Gav.

Thanks guys:-) @Gav,Stan
Yeah that's what I need Fretty, something along those lines. Unfortunately I didn't have any sort of contingency before I hacked that bit off the body so not sure what's happening yet, I'll probably just chop down the stock one. There's a fair bit of ad lib going on with this build:-)
