Another Alder Guitar


Recommended Posts

Nope not a router Table

but speaking of points, how do you go about routing the bevels once you get to the points, do you just have wood the same thickness as the guitar to sit the router on

for something like this guitar I do this because with A table I cant really see whats going one And I was geting alot of tear out on the Table in my shop

!!METAL MATT!! :D

any ideas for a paintjob yet?

Flat black!!

The tearout's probably just an issue of router speed and which direction you're routing if you're seeing a noticeable difference between handheld routing and table routing.

Ya I know but the router on the table was also very old and only a single speed so I have mor luck with my way but soon enough I'll be doing all my bevels by hand at least thats trhe goal :D

Awesome guitar Matt... Black would definitely be nice. I wanna see some quilted maple veneer on the front though done in black... I think it would look sweet... or maybe some cracked mirror plexi also. That would look really sweet...

Also a quick tip to minimize tearout with a 45 degree chamfer bit on a table... cut it in steps. That way you have less wood to hog away with each pass, thus minimizing tearout... :D

Your guitars are something I would enjoy using AND abusing people with, I like that V you were making (pic were on your MySpace) looked very classy but evil too

Keep the evil guitars coming, and hopefully, well see you make it big, B)

Whilst I wouldn't word it quite so strongly, I agree, and have removed the link.

I'm sure that anyone who particularly wants to find the video can use google, but it's not appropriate to be linked to, especially since you didn't preface it with any warning about the content, or an indication that it's NWS.
