  • Finished all my templates yesterday for my new Mockingbird build. I'm finding myself being really careful with it because of all the pointy bits on it...

    I've never actually held on before, and it's a lot smaller than I thought it would be. I was expecting it to be explorer / firebird size, but it's actually similar to a telecaster.

    Until recently I haven't been able to order any wood to build it, so in the meantime I've finally found the motivation to tackle polishing the neck in the background. It's close - just needs a buff and attaching then that one will be finally done.

  • Yeah - that's one of mine. I had a fox living on my workshop roof at the time, so used him for my inlay... It was the first bit of inlay I tried - it's crude, but relatively close to a fox I think (or maybe a horse...:) )

    I'd seriously be delighted to make something for you, that kind of 'commission' is exactly what I'm working towards being able to do eventually.

    But I don't think I'm quite there yet - my setup isn't good enough yet, so at the minute I tend to get necks properly dressed, and also I only get a couple of hours a week so it would take a really long time to finish.

    However, I want to finish this one for myself, then I promised a TV yellow LPJ to a mate...

    After that I'll be out of space and my semi thought through plan is to maybe build a few at a slow pace for the cost of the woods for anyone interested and who can give me really good feedback on them.
