Retrosonix Posted June 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Completely messed up the fretboard so i am using that material for the tailpiece and adjustable bridge. Ordered lovely pre cut rosewood board from reid timber in the uk ( very reliable )scale is 24.8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrosonix Posted June 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2023 Rets are done, this is the one part of this build that went absolutely perfectly! had a blow out near the neck pocket when routing - have patched it up but it isnt invisible.

Retrosonix Posted July 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 Didnt like the burst so that was sanded back, i havent settled on a pickup yet but its strung up and plays nice. i am having to side line this project to finish a build for my son before he goes to university 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
