Once again you have taken a tedious operation and made it easy and repeatable. The more of your jigs and templates I have, the better or a guitar builder I become, thank you!
Thank you Steve... I just purchased a LOT of templates and having a great time over this Christmas break building my 1st dream guitar. Very helpful that there are accompanying videos on RUclips to LEARN how to use them!
Nice, wish I would have saw this and I would have made my jig different. If I need to do a neck again I will use some of these ideas. In my case I did not cut and flip. I took 2 pieces and put them together. You could for example do the headstock out of ebony and the neck maple. I just did Maple and Maple, but it allowed me to thickness the headstock down a bit before gluing it up.
As usual, your jigs are great. So well thought out. Super cool ❤. I have a question, you've probably worked with most wood types out there, which do you find as being the most vibrational? I love when I strum a guitar and the whole thing seems to hum. Definitely a dopamine hit for me. Is this what's described as resonance? I dunno, but I'll play thirty of the exact same guitar model, and maybe one will have that vibration to it, which is a must-have for me to buy a guitar. Have you noticed any consistency to this with certain woods?
That would have been nice to have a month ago as I was burning up boards on a disc sander. Do you have any brick and mortar( I'm in Denver area) or just online?
We have a factory outside Denver…but not a retail store. Some people stop by to pick up orders…it to drop off guitars for Plek service. But this needs to be done by appointment. Call the number on our website if you need help. Thanks for watching.
Awesome jig. I noticed on your completed neck the spoke wheel adjustment was located inside the neck verses the spoke wheel at the end of the heel. Is there a reason for that?
I'm surprised how inexpensive you are pricing these. Normally I get the idea and build my own version of it. At this price, why would I bother, it would cost me more in baltic birch and my time, might as well buy it from you and be done with it. My plans call for eleven degrees though, can a non stocked angle be special ordered?
If you buy these jigs because you find it difficult to make them yourself, well, find another hobby, stamp collecting or something. This is really basic woodworking.
Agree, and everything he sells is like StewMac, way over priced, like 100% profit over priced. I get a 10% or 20% profit, but anything over that is a fk you to the buyer cause all they care about is the moneys. His $70 Radius Sanding Blocks is a joke and easy to make and people are falling head over heals over it like morons. I can use the exact same wood: Sugar Maple, Hard Maple, Rock Maple (all the same just different names). He calls it Hard Rock Maple to make it sound special like its the hardest Maple, but it's the same wood. A 2x4x8 Sugar Maple is between $100-$110 (as of 2023). Cut into 4 pieces and sell them at $30 a piece and you pay shipping (in your country only of course). I can build a mini cnc, for that price and get perfer persuasion.
I don't care about making a decorative joint. I just want to be able to make CLEAN ones! I'm ordering now!! You're a genius, Steve!

Another great jig from the Mad Scientist of guitar making!
Great looking jig Steve, I may have to get one of these for an upcoming project.

Wow...thats a fantastic idea Steve... the neck looked beautiful !!!
Absolutely love your videos, hope all is well!
Can’t wait to get mine! Ordered it and it looks like it’s going to work great!
Steve...glad to see you back. Looking forward to this one.
Dear Steve. I keep coming back to these videos because they are awesome. Best regards, Matthew.
Thank you. I’m trying hard to create the time to get back to doing videos. Thanks for hanging in there.
Great! Would you ever consider/have the time to create a les paul / advanced build set of videos?
Super looking jig setup Steve, thanks for the video - Cheers from Canada
Steve, great video and explanation. I am looking forward to making an angled headstock on the next build.
As always Steve, I enjoy your videos and jig ideas.
Good to see you again! Great jig! Have a wonderful Christmas time! 🎄
Thanks...you too Thomas!
So glad to see your new video!
As they say..."good to be seen".
As always another fantastic invention! Emily still looking over you while you work. :)
Got to get her done!
I learnt a lot from this video. Subscribed 😎
This is *so* good. Ordering now!
Love this! How do you thinkness your headstock after glue up? Lots of ways but I'm curious as to yours.

Very slick idea Steve!!
great work Steve!
Brilliant but simple tooling !!
That looks so cool!
Cool jig. I think we all struggle with knowing where to draw the line sometimes!
Rock it Steve!

good stuff brother
This is sweet. Make a smaller scale one of these for organ pipe mouths. 10 degrees is standard.
Muito bom esse processo !

Purely cosmetic...trickier to execute, but I like it done that way.
@@maximumguitarworks so do you install that truss rod with the spoke wheel up or down. Hope that makes sense
Up…easier reach with it higher.
@@maximumguitarworks thank you

Where could I buy one 10degree?

You two give off Dwight vibes. It’s hilarious.
