with the amount of work you put in Barge, you might as well do scratch bodies.
cool project bro

Aw yeah. Love the concept.

The neck fit passes the test
Nicely done Barge... Looking freaking good already!
Cheers dude, I was definitely the most nervous about doing the neck pocket, I can relax a bit now. Hopefully it should be plain sailing from here on out (famous last words)...Originally Posted by Brendan
Looking good Barge you are always full steam ahead. If the body Is heavy you may have to chamber it. I had to on my latest scratchy. You still got to route pup and control cavities so it will be a bit lighter

Yeah, like you say, rout out those cavities and carve the top and it should lighten the load a bit. I can't really see how I could chamber this one.
Cheers Barge. Should look choice as bro.
I'll check out the website

Depends how big will the control cavity be? If you aren't chambering it make a larger Control cavity will shed more weight

It was only going to be big enough to house standard Tele electronics but there's no reason why I couldn't make it a little roomier.
I mean it's not crazy heavy, so once the routs are done it should be cool.
