If you don't have the tools for finger jointing or dovetails then there are two better options - you sound like you have a router for rounding over - so : 1. Double rebated corner joints Sounds way harder than it is - its just two router cuts on each corner and gives way more glue area https://wood...

My advise is copy someone else’s proven dimensions, going over size in my experience isn’t always best. The last 2x12 I built was oversized but it was too bloated. Not much attack, I ended up cutting it down in size and went from closed back, to half open to eventually cutting an oval shaped hole i...

Hi all, Thinking of making up two oversized 1x12 cabs. I bought those plastic bass reflex ports off Aliexpress, 2 per cab. Anyone tried these? I also bought my corners etc from the express of Ali, so I hope they don't rust quickly. Borge has kindly donated me some grille cloth, just need to get some...

Everybody wants speakers for nothing and their picks for free.

When people ask what my favourite band is I say Live, at least up until V. Always wanted to see them but never thought I would. I had 2 tickets for the show but suddenly came down with the worst food poisoning I've ever had. No idea what caused it. Still feeling shite. I was able to give away one t...

Damn. Want.

buy a gibson e-tune - it can change to any tuning within 10 seconds with one or two strums. I like the theory of being able to push a button and instantly have a different tuning, but did it actually work? The internet chatter says no. Even if auto-tuning worked perfectly, I would just go getting a...

Have you heard Adrian Legg play? He has tuners that let him move between tunings at the flick of a wrist...which he does mid-song across multiple strings. I thought he used something like a D-tuna, but then I saw him live. He just turns his insanely high ratio tuners very quickly and very accuratel...

I picked up some gotoh 21:1 tuners for my acoustic. Got them on last night - just what I was after. Easier to fine tune for my weird tunings. Happy!

I just checked in regards to my Tele bridge question and both bridges seem to be spaced 54mm. But the gotoh one seems to feel better in terms of spacing because the strings don't slip off as easily. Weird.

Works a treat.

That might be the way of it

So I sucked it up and bought a babicz telecaster bridge for my Tele. 6 saddle version. Firstly, holy shit - this sounds noticeably different unplugged and the sustain is incredible. It really is a level up in design. Only thing is... In the heat of the moment I didn't take into account the string s...

I think I sold those to you...that will be why I can't find them Strummers

You sold them to Nik.

I bought them off Nik.

That's confusing.
