Glueing fretboard
Routing body
I didn´t have enough plexiglas to make another complete template, so I had to improvise
Not the best flame, but I like it
Got some wood yesterday. Alder and plain maple fort the second one.
I think the alder turned out great
Bodies
Okay, after some time I´m here with some updates

I think I saw it here on PG somewhere... anyways I was thinking about using them too

Aaaaahm
would you mind if those appeared on my fingerboard too?
I like seeing those multiple builds. I am building two guitars right now and it is good to see how my skills are getting better Practise is practise...
I´ve got one. It´s 40mm with convex blade and it´s great. It is usefull when you are making carved tops, you can also carve the back of the neck with it. Looks like it´s too small, but trust me that if you have it sharp enough, it´s perfect.
I am really interested in that neck, because I could get some teak wood out of an old railway carriage.. should be about 110 years old... I believe teak is hard to work with.
Thanks, I love PRS too and hopefully this one will be beautiful
At least it will be mine and original
Actually the second one appears to be superstrat with PRS headstock... we´ll see
Okay I got glued up the body blank for no.2, it is walnut (Juglans Regia, L.), just need to glue on the ears
And finally started working on necks. Scarf joints glued, sanded flat and truss-rod channel routed Fretboards are not glued on yet.
