I’ve kept notes for years on the building process.  It is nice to look back on the journal every now and then to add or remove old or outdated procedures.  It is inevitable that over time, you will find new and improved ways of achieving the same results. This can be okay as long as you are maintaining the integrity of the build process.  It is easy to forget from time to time what worked in the past and what didn’t.  It is easy to neglect writing the procedure notes, but believe me, you may find yourself repeating the same mistakes again and again overtime.  So it is important in my opinion, to try and keep track of your work procedures.

Over the next year I hope to share with you the techniques used in the building of our guitars.  Many years went into the process so I hope it saves you time and frustration so you can get on with the build.

Best of luck with your projects!

The first thing I decided to do is make a neck profile I could transfer to my neck wood.
