Ah....good ole smartasses. Dime a dozen.

Anyone have an informative reply?

A template bit

You got a recommendation of where to get one?

After I get the body shape rough cut on my bandsaw, what is a good router bit to use to cut the rest of the body with my router and template afterwards?

Is this mic on?

Also, would a 9" bandsaw be good enough to cut out bodies and necks?

Thanks!

Yeah I am in the US. And I live in Texas.

melvin hiscocks book "build your own electric guitar"

Thanks! Just bought it!

Can anyone give me a good place to get body and 1pc neck blanks?

It did, but Im trying to learn about setting neck angles and such. Doesn't seem to be too difficult however, since i plan on doing a set neck over a bolt on.

Where do you guys buy your body and neck woods from? I checked e-bay but I'm looking for a 1 pc neck blank instead of something you have to put a heel joint on.

Hey all.

Just wanted to introduce myself. I plan on doing my very first guitar build and was wondering if you could suggest some books or otherwise to help me along my way? I plan on buy templates to help out as well.

Also, would a 9" bandsaw be good enough to get my rough design cuts done? Then follow through with the template and router?

I designed a guitar, and had a prototype built. But I plan on building them myself from now on after I get an initial grasp on building a guitar and how to set necks.
