Well home for a short while till monday so I thought I would test it out on a bit of Pine before I go for some pricey wood. Man Im very pleased with the results. Accurate and 3d mills a treat. Check out the precision of the pickup and neck pockets.

That is amazing mate, really nice results. Nice clean cuts. Pine or not, that will be a pretty nice axe. Get ready for an order!

Thanks gents, yes Wokks put a bit of Jarrah in to see how it copes with soft to hard wood and its flawless. Cuts are clean and no thicknesser required as I faced it down to size. Now to get some of DB's tone woods and see how a neck goes. Made it to a pitbull neck and the fit is a very precise light push fit. (perfect). Back in a couple of weeks Wokks so the AGM can take place at the mancave then. Work is really starting to get in the way of play time at the mo.
Amazing Jarrod, just amazing. I'm sick with envy bro! Great results. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.
cheers,
Gav.

That's a rough cut? Can I have your test runs? I couldn't do anything that neat in a lifetime.
Jarrod that's fantastic,
Might have to get one myself.

Can't wait for the AGM, happy to dispense with the 21 days notice and bring the meeting forward!

Looks pretty!
My only concern is mixing hard and soft woods, but for a test play why not?
There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
