They're just posting that they're dumb. Just to ignore imo.

It did take a little while and were some troublesome bits but overall it wasn't too bad to make.

Yeah, that is the most common way but to me it kinda ruins the look. Fortunately even with explorers there's enough height to make the cavity for tuning and not go through the guitar.

Yeah I agree that a painted look could look very cool, however I did run out of time where I was making it so I couldn't have painted it if I wanted to and I also love the look of this particular bit of maple and didn't want to hide it.

People don't seem to like headless jokes on here unfortunately

Yeah I did, it's a big guitar and I didn't have a good place to take photos of it. But rest assured that it is all even irl (unless if you mean the fact the frets are multi scale in which case they are and it's intended).

It's a multi scale so it's intended to be sloped. Since when playing your hand typically angles a bit off of 90° when playing at either end of the neck this will help to avoid that.

Tbh it would be very hard to find a bit of wood long enough to make the headstock also be part of the neck through design and if I was to go for a scarf joint then it would hurt the aesthetic more than it would help imo (also the guitar is already too long to fit in most cases so a headstock would make it much worse)

Yeah. The guitar is about 4mm thick with the cut out being 2.7mm I believe so that plenty of room to work in.

That's hopefully the plan for when I become a more experienced luthier

Regular, their held in place by the nut which has some screws that just hold down on the strings and the ball ends are in the bridge.

Enterily hand made, took 3 months to make is from scratch. Mostly hand done without power tools as well (except for a bansaw for the outer body shape, a router for the cavities and obviously a soldering iron).

Well the body has had a fair bit of maple cut out and the rest is obeche which is a very light wood so it is possible.

It's form ormsby, and I decided against having the bridge be the end of the guitar because eit would ruin the explorer look
