Great to see Martin that you have completed the house build and now enjoy the final product. Also looking forward to seeing your workshop in action with a new guitar build.

Looks amazing Trent. Recently I had an enquiry from a local music shop that was interested in the falcate bracing idea for a bass guitar just like your posting. I be interested to know how it sounds and your comments on building / design aspects.

Hi Dave I would also recommend that you should use T&G book methods. To help you using visual analyser Trevor / Robbie O'Brian has produced a video set that demonstrates how to setup and use these methods. I purchased the videos online from Robbie O'Brian and found this very helpful when setup the c...

8O3JYp6vjtQ This is my first 'Falcate' braced guitar build (12th fret at the body joint) that I started building January 2020 and completed two weeks ago. I did enjoy the challenge creating jig frames for the 'Primary' and 'Secondary' braces. First time working carbon fibre and using the 'West' epo...

Great to see you keeping up the various challenges as you progress. I used 'Adirondack Spruce' for my braces. The secondary braces were a little more difficult to bend. I did break one laminate. I then had to be more careful and patience when using the bending iron for the secondary brace bends. I w...

I have also used spruce to make Falcate Bracing and had no issues. Refer to photo attachment.

I received my 10 Rosewood Bridge Blanks that I ordered with free shipping arrangements, 5th December 2019. from 'Stewmac'. This order was made when 'Stewmac' removed their export restriction on rosewood items for a short period in early December 2019. 'Stewmac' has re-introduced the export ban again...

When I looked at 'Stewmac's' website, 5th & 6th December 2019, their website did not display a restriction on exporting Rosewood Bridge blanks or Rosewood Back & Sides. On the 6th December 2019, I placed an order for some Rosewood Bridge Blanks. I received an email 6th December 2019, from 'Stewmac' ...
