Moving right along. Doing a crazy amount of work and finally digging it again. Healdsburg, New website, Asia Show, The Gathering, Mike G guitars, wife's promotion, New FBJ story (on shelves now or super soon)in issue #14, New article work. Yeah lots!!

Anyway, catch up on the HD.

Widened and squared my neck laminates, I realized my cores needed more to support what's going to happen later. ;) ;)

Big congrat's Todd! Wow.....#50 8-) , I only have 47 more to catch up with you. :o

That's some stack up of laminations considering I'm about to embark on my first attempt at a 5 piece neck. Nice work Todd, and I'll be watching for the new FBJ. 8-)

Had to have the boss sign too, as she's the reason I made it to 50! I have to write over the the model name but that's part of the prototype process!!

Never a dull moment watching your guitars come together. :mrgreen: Crazy stuff Todd, and I love it! 8-)


BTW, went with 7 pieces on the neck, and it came out fine. Thanks for the inspiration and tip on using regular Titebond!
