Today I started with a new project a lefty mosrite clone for forum member Olav.
I hope you guys can give us some pointers because I'm new to mosrites and never seen the real deal. Olav's girl has a nice aria "moclocne" So that and especially the Ed Elliot thread will help a lot.
So I put some alder together
And routed the template.
Thiknessed the body with my good old safeT planer.1.7" (4.3mm) for starters
Cheerio!

Binding; YES or NO
Since this is the thread about 'my' guitar, I thought I'd ask here.
I like this look;
and this;
So I think binding on this build will be groovy.
I also like this though;
the clean look that a body with no binding has...
What to decide? Oigun's breathing down my neck...

Re: lefty
I wonder what it will be. To bind or not to....
darn @#$%
I have to find a better way of doing this. Invest in a downcuttinspiralbit or a decent pinrouterperhaps.
I've used a piece that came out of the waist so its hardly visible anymore.
Ready for the carve:
