scorpionscar Posted September 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Quote Some pics of the making of the covers for the Schaller Lockmeister bridge and for the cavity control. Usually I make them marking the shape with the help of a template, but in this case I tried to do them different. I made a table for the Dremel and used a template of plywood. Really it worked amazing and with no danger, I'm scary of doing this with the bosch router. I laminated both of the covers, one with poplar and swamp ash, and the other wallnut of my town and European mapple. Scorpionscar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 Nice! And I love the little Dremel router table. SR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorpionscar Posted September 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) Quote The covers are done. the wallnut one goes half of its width recessed, because a wanted it projected a few. Didn't like completely recessed. Some pics: Scopionscar Edited October 17, 2019 by scorpionscar 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADFinlayson Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Indeed congrats, almost unanimous that, and rightly so but your fret ends alone were enough to sell it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayT Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 The bar set so high...another mind-blowing guitar. Can't wait to see it finished. Actually, I'd like to also hear some of these guitars plugged in. Being new here, can I ask...is there a link to video/audio of any builds being played?

curtisa Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Members here will occasionally post their own audio/video samples as part of their Guitar Of The Month entry. Have a browse through the individual GOTM winners page to see what's on offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the natural back too. Awesome work dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
