Dave I Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 I would like to start making templates and stuff for my future ES-335 project. Where can I get the best plans for them? Sort of a side-question, what would be the difference between making an ES-335 with F-holes and making an ES-335 with a solid top (e.g. no F-holes)? Any pro's or con's or is it mainly aesthetics since this is a semi-hollow electric guitar? If there is another thread, or a book, that talks about this do not be afraid to save yourself some typing and just tell me to go look for it. Thanks in advance? -Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stereordinary Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Ooh, I didn't know that was available to contributing members. Sounds cool, anyone wanna attest to the accuracy of the plans? I mean, I was hoping to contribute one of these days anyway, but if there's perks I might hafta free up the funds quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 theres some free plans here: http://www.watsonbailey.com/plans/ If you havent seen the 'Making of the Eric Clapton 335' video, its very helpful to witness one being built. Its a good hour long so ice up a few cold ones and get comfortable-Vinny http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4764707652331081865 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I was hoping to contribute one of these days anyway, but if there's perks I might hafta free up the funds quicker. It's a pretty nice feature. I would (and will) measure things just to make sure, but they seem pretty sound, basic plans from the few I have looked at. theres some free plans here: http://www.watsonbailey.com/plans/ Any thoughts on which would be better to use, the Watson Bailey plans, or the ones from the Downloads section? Or does it really matter? I will be making it a 24.75" scale, so the WB plans will need to be augmented for the neck, but that should be no big deal. The WB plans DO seem much more detailed though, but both look usable. -Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
