  • this is a really good first effort, bravo *****

  • lol Rooster ...

  • Looking good buddy! Now you just need a case.... hehe

  • I'll drill some in tommorow John. Many thanks for that mate.

  • John I've just done a short video so that you can hear what it sounds like. When you pluck a string the sustain on it is lovely, it rings forever lol.

  • John,  IF you want side markers, you can wood burn them in or, my fave- drill with a 1/8th inch bit barely into the wood and put a spot of paint in the hole.  Use a tiny dowel or chopstick

  • Oooops ..... I knew I had forgotten something

  • Wow!  That photo just makes it look wonderful.  Looks good without fret markers.  Do you have them on the side?

  • Cheers James. I covered the box with tape all the way through the build so I did nothing to the box. The neck I coated in 3 layers of danish Oil.

  • very nice i like this a lot, what you finish it with?
