Welcome! My handle is Southern Ray - Call me Ray if you wish. This place is pretty quiet lately, had a few losses... a few just left due to some tech issues here. Main one is the "Visual Mode / HTML Editor is wonky. It seems to prefer HTML, but not always for me. I write my post on a notepad program then cut and paste to the Editor, so if it erases your work during posting you can try the other one. s'Make sense?
We still have a few active members, a few very impressive luthiers amongst us that love to share their magic. There are others, like myself that just put sticks and strings in boxes and bang on them. There is a TON of info on everything regarding homebuilt guitars. Lots of music too.
One rule here about building CBGs. NO RULES!
Have fun!
