De săptămâna asta incepe sa se încălzească si sa crească umiditatea afara... De obicei vara cu ac si dezumidicator o tin la 50-55. 2 1
CiocanelBloodyCIocanel Posted April 2, 2021 Author Posted April 2, 2021 The top on the OM is by far the thinnest i've gone. Although it is thick at the upper bout. Also braces are thinner than the usual. 1

CiocanelBloodyCIocanel Posted April 14, 2021 Author Posted April 14, 2021 Acum 12 ore, vaxe a spus: Pffff, tare as fi vrut sa vad cum arata bracingul la tele ! Spor sa ai! No bracing. Toata bucata unde e bridgeul e lasata acolo. La fel si un perete unde e doza de neck (for looks si ca sa fie mai mult lemn la neck joint). Restu e facut copaie cu bench drill. Am lasat lasat 'spatele' la un cm ca are contur pe spate. Are bridge normal nu activeaza topul si topul nu are nicio tensiune, deci nu are nimic cu acustica asa ca nu e nevoie de bracing. Daca ii pui bridge floating sau pinless atunci e nevoie de un bracing, un X fara extra bracing pus si la nimereala e de ajuns. 1
CiocanelBloodyCIocanel Posted April 22, 2021 Author Posted April 22, 2021 I've decided i'm gonna take a werner herzog approach to building... Plans and drawings are the instruments of cowards. Nothing i build stays according to initial plan and nothing is according to any drawing. People ask me if I can build 'this' - nope. I can build, that's it. The padauk fretboard got glued on wrong so i had to replace it with this ebony one with not that appealing inlays... it was the only 25.5 i had left. Thermomaple neck is 🙂 nice 2

CiocanelBloodyCIocanel Posted May 9, 2021 Author Posted May 9, 2021 Aia mica e pe stanga, mane, dar o cant eu momentan sa vad daca rezista neckul.... Apoi ii pun bridgeul ei. Are o eroare enorma - cand am sculptat neckul l-am facut prea subtire sub prima tasta. 2
CiocanelBloodyCIocanel Posted May 12, 2021 Author Posted May 12, 2021 Done, beech. Sample in white. No finish, strings not running at correct break angle yet.
