It's not a plank until it's been driven round a corner between two lorries whilst the car it was on the roof of goes the other way.

Prise a marker dot out and pin through that? Silly idea, it'll be over the truss rod channel. 12th fret? It's got blocks. Abort!
-
A jig I suspect for that one.
-
I would have no qualms adjusting a truss rod channel from the top on a mill. From the back? Not a whelk's chance in a supernova.
-
Silly question, and probably covered by the above "last resort" option, but could the fingerboard be reattached sans truss rod and then go through the back of the neck to install a new one and fit a skunk stripe?

Hurr-hurr, Volute...

Why don't you bring the thing back in with you to save all this scurrying around to the shed and back?
-
Excuse my inability to draw...

Perpendicular to the strings, or along the same axis?
-
It's very shiny, have you polished the ebony? Is there space for the swifts...

Nice work, well done on taking the plunge. Nice looking jumper as well 🙂

Geez, will you change your profile picture already, I keep thinking Andy's posted an update

Ooo, I want to be one of those. Probably not this thread though.

I bought an unused Peavey Millennium 5er neck from Leroybass. Perfect transaction from beginning to end. Trade with impunity!
-
I'm glad I'm not going mad, but equally sorry for you too 🙂

P Bass inspired by Jabba small scale thing(sorry for the plagerism)

Alternate pink/mop pink/mop... -
Is the bridge pickup surround slightly skewed, or is it just a photo issue? Or my eyes!
-
Will it be any good for metal?
-
Yes, the same as a normal two plank body, only rotated through 90 degrees. I'm actually thinking of a multi laminate blank at 45°, 90 was a worst case scenario! I'm also, now, thinking of a battenburg effect, like one of those alternating block chopping boards that are all over YouTube... I need sleep...
-
Evening all. Has anyone ever built a bass body out of sections with the glue joints perpendicular to the strings? I have a vision of the whole thing folding itself in half and the section with the bridge on smacking me in the face. Thoughts?
-
And that's the important bit right there.

Jar, spoon. Spoon, jar... Google photos tells me it was two years ago that @Andyjr1515 glued his fingers together. I believe that those are @SpondonBassed's knees trying to escape from the wings stage left.

So the saddles at the extremes with the foremost on the scale length is to allow for any minor wobbles in the measuring/build process?
