Hi all,
I'm planning on starting my first build in the next few weeks and have a pretty good idea on how I'm going to do it.
The only thing I haven't got fully sorted is, where to get the wood from.. I've seen many online shops, but unless you can get your hands on it, you never know what your getting. So I'm ideally looking for an Alder supplier, in or around the Midlands, UK.
Also I'm planning on doing a Strat esque, guitar and have read Martin Oakham's book, but I'm still really nervous about doing the contour on the back... many people recomend using a spoke shave which I'm not familiar with, does anyone have a good guide, or set of photos on this process, again seen many sites, but they're all here it is at the start and here's the finished product...(Of course planning on having a play on some rough cut first)
Many Thanks
