clintham Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 hi im looking to build a JS. i have various resources so far. a radius body plan and a few measurements and other diagrams. nothing that i would call a plan. i have built guitars before but never without a comprehensive set of plans. also i cant find any diagrams from necks. i think i could get enough together but i see some awesome JS builds on this forum which makes me think that people may have plans/designs which could help me alot! any help would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintham Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 also just to add, im not opposed to paying for plans but im in the UK so shipping for plans and templates tends to cost more than the actual plans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauliemc Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 I build JS models a lot. But I never realy had plans. I had a fairly crappy radius model plan at one point. & I have had a guitar on the bench to take some measurements from on occasion. No neck plans at all, apart from what I already knew from experiance building. Id say just get a load of piks, use your radius plan & make up your own templates. Thats all i realy done, & im fairly sure Andy on here took the same path on his JS Builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim1173 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Here is a site with plenty of plans, it is in German but you can figure out which plans are which. http://www.gitarrebassbau.de/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6&start=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
