  • is it wrong if my neck don't has that "steel peace" that goes under the fretboard through the body ?

  • The purpose of the trusrod is to give strength to the neck, so that when the wood bends from string tension or changes in environment then you can adjust your neck and not have a permanently warped neck. If you do not use a trusrod then you would need to build your neck much thicker, but even then, no guaranties that your neck will not warp.

  • you have some very unorthodox ways of building, but i like them. i love the fact that you use a jig-saw to cut out stuff, i personally think that is better than a band saw. band saw blades are scary around tough radiuses. if you ever want to chat about lutherie hit me up man, good to see some people out there still have original build ideas.

  • well I don't know, I've never actually used a bandsaw, everything has limitations and having the will to work within those limitations is how a jigsaw got into my guitar's construction haha

    Answer...Yes

  • could give some data about putting frets on the fingerboard?

  • you need a new jigsaw seriously! but nice work

  • duncers79 i think is ebony

    

  • good work but you could of got a much neater and quicker result if you tapered the fretboard and neck using the taple saw and glue gun on a scrap piece of wood at the correct angle so the table saw cuts the taper exactly and perfectly,+ no sanding/ planing required

  • you build a acoustic guitar! your pretty good!

  • what wood is the finger board

  • @TheMagnumGuitar its a spokeshave

  • what is the name of that tool at 2:27 ?
