Greetings All. Got something I'm waiting for the sealer to cure on. Then I have to decide how to proceed, I've got a maple/maple Tele neck that could go on it. So far the body is Black Walnut, the top is Padauk, the back is a combo of B/W, Padauk and Zebrawood. Decided to double bind it, such...

For awhile now I have used ImageShack for my photos. However, they are now telling me that my 30-day free trial is over. And in spite of the fact that I bought a subscription, I'm supposed to pay for another subscription to use my photos. The site is connected to Facecrooks, so I should have...

Work has commenced on this one, so I thought I'd move it here. Since last post, I have talked to the boy some more and we settled on a few things. At first He wanted a full on Relic but I talked him down to a guitar that looks like it's used but cared for. So you'll see a few spots where it...

(Wasn't sure where to put this, so I thought I'd start here and move it if needed.) My Wall-T is hardening up, and it'll be a couple more weeks before it's cured enough that I'll feel comfortable level-sanding and doing the final coats. In the meantime Ive had a request from my nephew, who is...

I used to think that age and a little arthritis was a good excuse for slacking off on my practicing. Then I saw this......... Now I'm kinda feeling a little ashamed of myself. .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVy8tz54_JA .

Having recently acquired some nice chunks of Entandrophragma cylindricum, commonly known as Sapele, I thought I should make sure my tooling was in order. Cleaned and lubed the spindle sander, dusted out the planer and flipped the blades over to a fresh edge. And decided to recut the inner edges...

I figure this should go here as I just unpacked them. My latest victims have arrived, two, count 'em, two planks of Ribbon-Stripe Sapele. 8/4 thick, 50in long and 8 1/2in wide. Cost me about $130.00 USD with tax and shipping. However I can probably get at least 3 bodies out of this, or 2 bodies...

Hello Group, My name is Phil and I'm a guitar building addict. It started out simple enough, just going to change a set of tuning keys. Then that wasn't enough, so I moved on to pickups, then pick-guards, before I knew it, it became a body blank a day habit. I can't stop. I've been to the...

May I wish everyone a better one coming in than the one going out................. :occasion14:

I don't know if anyone here would actually run into this situation, but it's an interesting solution for getting it done. .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=td5tU_C5lWA .

Who do you think were truly great rhythm sections. I mean a bassist and drummer who could lay down a groove you could plant trees in. Musical genre doesn't matter. I'll list three obvious ones to get it started. 1. James Jamerson and Benny Benjamin 2. Hal Blaine and Carol Kay 3. Geddy Lee...
