First of all: Welcome back, Steve! You will probably too busy to read this comment, but I wanna suggest you an addition for your template system. Basically is a bass guitar 34" scale Fit-All with the neck pocket and the various pickups options, just like the one you have made for the standard guitars scale lenght. I know that there is a section on your website for asking custom or personalized templates, but I think that this option is very versatile for a lot of people to make their own projects. I hope to see more of your videos in the future, you are a very great virtual teacher, cheers!
Best guitar build videos on youtube!!! Please keep them coming! The slice technique just made me go 🤯, thats how its done! Thats going to be a gorgeous guitar! Curious 🤔 to see the color of that strat and if you use that pickguard, should be wild!
I always wanted a strat with highly figured top and a clear pickguard to protect the top and then paint the edge with black or gold. But now that I am watching this I that I bet Steve could figure out a way to do binding bonded to the edge of a clear pickguard. So do you think such a thing is possible? I know binding is a different type of plastic and using solvent to bing would most likely make the clear plastic milky unless it was lexan. Just a thought, you welcome to ignore it if you have no time. But they always say doesn't hurt to ask. Unless you figured out how to smack somebody thru the computer screen. In which case can you tell me how to do that?
If you look back in the older parts of this series…you will see that I am using the Schaller Hannes 6 fixed bridge on the walnut top guitar. That is for the unique mounting hardware. Thanks for the comment…I should have mentioned that in this video.
@@maximumguitarworks Thank you. I asked because I have seen it on other guitars and wasn't sure why. So far Ive only built with Hipshot, Floyds, etc. No Schaller, so am not familiar with that mounting.
Did you not watch the second half of the video we made a wooden cover plate same technique I just don’t have a personal preference for wood pick guards, even though in some cases, they look nice.

Nice. Looking forward to more videos with Hannah!
That’s the plan!
Glad to see you back. I'm guessing Hannah is your daughter? Always nice to see women in woodworking.
Great having you back!!! Keep them coming
My Frankencaster came with a stainless pickguard. Talk about industrial. I'm replacing it with a custom plastic pickguard.
Great to have you back! And you brought excellent support with you! 👍🏻
Thank you Tom. Hoping to keep things going now that I have help.

Steve, good to see another video!
I love the idea of the notes pages y'all... Great Idea.
Oh yeah and I ALWAYS get the template on wrong for chamfering
Always two there are…a master and an apprentice…
Does that mean Steve is an evil Sith?

What are the two holes on the back of the walnut body by the bridge ferrule block route?

Great video! FYI I have used clear packing tape instead of wax paper that worked quite well.
Why don't you try make pick guards from EBONY veneer or Rosewood ---instead of cheapo plastic?
