    Looking groovey man but my current project is better Well i think it is.
    Should I post pics in a thread and put you to shame, or just let you suck up some of that lime coloured light?

    I have better things to do with my life than wait around for you......oh wait, no i dont!!

    Looking good bro. Im gonna get me a barrel jack for my next build (which i started getting parts for already lol) Neck pocket looks nice and snug!! Good work.

    Making some fast progress so far. Planned the finish yet?

    LOL

    barrel jacks are nice.... ill be using them from now on...
    25bux aint bad

    the neck pocket is tight as.... its all glued in now and yea.... lol

    finish will be tung oil... i gotta test the tung oil i got
    hmm satin or gloss....

    i thought stewmac do 16inch radiused boards standard?
    i know mine are 16" radius

    to keep it at a lower cost i am trying to keep it to 16'' boards.. that will save me having to buy other radius blocks and fretpress inserts

    i will put pics up once they have loaded onn photobucket.....
    couple of mins
