zooropa1310 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 The $50 router bit and the $6 appropriate depth bearing, last I recalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I don't know if that deserves to be called 'equipment'. Here's a money saving tip, if you replace the bearing from a flush cut bit with the smaller bearing from a 45* or similar bit then you're good to go.

zooropa1310 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I call everything equipment, haha. Strings and picks? Bought new equipment. Good tip! Thanks I'll try and return it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that the difference in the bearings outer diameter is equal to the thickness of the binding he want. I pick the binding thickness first and then machine for that.

Russell_A Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 How does it play? You plug it into an amplifier and strum the strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zooropa1310 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 How does it play? Despite the look, it actually played and sounded quite well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkgYn85p58U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect him to go cutting the guitar up until he's tested it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zooropa1310 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Definitely had to make the body longer. It was a touch more than the cost of parts... It was 4 years ago or so, I forgot how much. I'd say a hundred or so above cost of parts. I hand delivered it in Glasgow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
