The postage time on it was about 6 days, not bad considering it’s location.
They are not always perfectly straight so they do have to be planed before joining. But they are a great price.
Why thank you. The fretboard should be arriving tomorrow so I’ll glue it then and I’ll install the tuners and then finish the neck, with Liberon finishing oil, and fret it when I can afford frets and fretpress
UPDATE:
The neck is shaped and awaiting slotted fretboard (I know I shouldve glied the f/b before but i got bored).
The neck isn’t also mounted, tuner holes drilled and body shaped
I was thinking to have a piezo bridge with no onboard controls, maybe a preamp for the piezo externally. This would mean no control cavity or pickup route. I could flame polish the neck pocket for aesthetics.
What was interesting about bens prototype was the bubbles in the acrylic, was this to emulate pores in wood so the bass would resonate or just a bad cast?
