Walnut/Maple AX84 Cab

Post by Cantplay »

Because dovetails aren't difficult enough.

I still have to do the front and rear panels, and the faceplate.

Wow... Sorry, I drooled on the keyboard and now the exclamation mark doesn't work. That is beautiful.

I'm not a huge fan of that look, but I am a HUMONGOUS fan of the skills to create it! :shock:

There is something either unnatural or surreal about that treatment of dovetails. No one should be allowed to do that. It makes the rest of us look...well...not so adept. Next thing you know we'll all be asked to do that sort of thing. <mutter, mumble> "How'd he do that?"

Now you know how I feel when I hear you guys play(hence my nickname)

Its done with a router and Leigh jig.

Made the front panel today from some birdseye maple. Still deciding on theme and font for faceplate.

John,
If you spent a similar amount of time and effort on "practicing" guitar playing as you have obviously spent on your woodworking skills, you'd likely be a better player. I do, however, understand that every person has their own set of priorities and what they are comfortable and patient enough to spend their time and efforts on! Truly STELLAR joinery! I just wish I could play as well as you join!

This is disappointing. I was expecting more dovetails! <kidding>
