I have always gone over to a friends house to use his band saw but I'm starting to build my own tool collection and I was wondering if you guys think a 9" band saw will work to cut out bodies and necks with. I know a larger band saw would be better but will the smaller one cut it? I found a really good cheap one at a local hardware store. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What's the brand? A cheap saw will have bad blade tracking and a really small motor. I used a 9" for a while to cut out bodies & necks, it worked okay with a harsh blade, like four or five TPI skip tooth.
