Even more progress!

Check out the pics! LP reso #1 almost done. Waiting on some ferrules then I can string 'er up! 
Problem 1: Cut a hole in the wrong side for the EQ system. 
Solution 1: Cut a piece of plate to cover the hole and bolted it on. Looks like I meant to do it.
Problem 2: Didn't want strings contacting edge of box.
Solution 2: Used a piece of hex to act as a turnbuckle. Epoxied to tailpiece of neck.

Should get the amp done this weekend too. Too late for Xmas, but my dad will love it all the same.

Monster build redux: Sanded the scarf joint and glued on the fretboard. Today will be shaping the neck and hopefully painting.

  • Indeed. I'm from the Bob Ross 'happy accidents' school, lol.

  • It's not the mistakes you make it's how you fix them. Sounds like you used your noodle to come up with a great solution.
