i think so, is there any other uses beside that?

I'm wondering if anyone here can point me in the direction of more information about honeycomb tops. In a post I made before there was mention of a honeycomb use in laminates, I'm wondering if there's more.

I agree, there are some really innovative stuff being done with laminates. I doubt it would be found on a $400 guitar, which is the quality I am trying to make that point apply to. My writing isn't the best so I see where the confusion is. I'm trying to say that as a whole the laminate top is weaker...

In short: What quality checks on a guitar do you make before sending them out the door or pronouncing them done? When deciding if I've finished an acoustic guitar I'll go over it a look for around 15 things related to musicality, playability and quality. I thought I'd turn that checklist into a guid...

Thank you everyone for the feedback. I think this is a great forum with lots of good information. It's helping me to become more knowledgeable. I think I understand the atmosphere better and will hold off on making promotional posts. I'll keep the pictures to a minimum and make them compressed when ...

I'm interested! I'll check this out. I do a lot of spectrum analysis to measure intonation and this would help a lot

Hello Everyone,

Falcate Bracing There have been many bracing designs used over the course of Jay’s building career. When he started out with a kit, the bracing used was an x-bracing pattern A good learning experience. There were difficulties present. Shaping each brace to the curvature of the body was a tedious and...

Thank you

I searched for the eharmonic fretboard and all I found was that it was an alternative tuning. Can you please explain the idea to me more or link to some materials. I appreciate your response to this and I'm thrilled to take this somewhere new. The tilt neck design isn't new, but I still think it's p...

Hello, I really like all the resources that forum provides, I've enjoyed reading the discussions. One of my influences as been Gore and Gilet's Design and Build . One of the places where I felt these books lacked was a proper solution to intonation problems. The process described by Gore and Gilet i...

That's beautiful, I love the adjustment in the heel block, so easy to use. This is really similar to the adjustable neck that I use.
