My friend, Nicholas in Canada, followed the online course and are now finishing a very nice guitar. I am also doing that, but due to Coroan, etc., I have not come as fas as Nicholas. Thanks, Pabo, I can now also use this video. Someone said it here - Pablo's videos are the "gold standard" of classical guitar building.
Thanks Pablo. As I am following your course, I found this video very useful for future reference. I ended up making a perfectly square block with a step routed out on the underside that just fit over the head veneer. I then clamped it to the neck making sure it was level with one side of the neck so it was 90 to the cut, I then used the block as a saw guide for my japanese saw. Simon.
Thanks pablo. I tend to clamp the head veneer square but further forward than required then I can just use a block plane to clean up the end and put the angle on it. I then put the head veneer in its finished position, clamp, drill 2mm holes in corners for cocktail sticks so it won’t move when gluing then glue it all down double checking to make sure it doesn’t creep. This seems to work very well so far on the 3 guitars I’ve built to date and not spotted a down side to it and means I don’t have to saw through the veneer in finished location or get a shoulder plane.
Hi Pablo, I like and prefer this approach more than with router jig one. Also, it keeps skills to a certain level and it is not time-consuming. Great video as all your videos.
Your videos are the gold standard of guitar construction! Many thanks!

Thank you Pablo. Your videos are all very helpful and very well explained.
Another excellent video, Pablo. Thanks!
I love your videos, you really make difficult elements seem understandable
Many thanks, Pablo.
