Thanks for that. I thinking of using selleys, as it seems similar to Titebond. But if I can get Titebond at a reasonable cost, then I will use that. I haven't priced timber from other suppliers, but $200 dollars just for a body blank seems pretty dear. Not that I am cheap. I have no issues spending $200 and up for a genuine Floyd Rose or the same for a Bareknuckle pickup.
By the way Demonx. think your guitars are brilliant. I am a huge fan of Charvel/Jackson style guitars, and through necks and dig yours as well.

Hello,
I have a few questions that I hope Australian builders can answer.
I know that a lot of builders (USA) use titebond for their glue of choice. I have not been able to find any here. What glue do you use?
Where do you source your timber? I am in the Newcastle, NSW area. And what native species would be good to use?
Also, do you source your parts locally or order from overseas?
Thanks

I was thinking of getting a guitar fetish body but was unsure if the bodies were made for 22 or 24 fret necks.
Looks like one of the bodies I was going to pull the trigger on. What is the length from nut to bridge on that body?

Hey thanks for that. I was looking into using solely Australian timber. I have been reading up a bit and it does seem that people do love blackwood. Never heard a guitar made out of it , that I know.
Carbatec seems to have a good price for titebond.
