    I’m back to watching your videos after a six month hiatus and I’m addicted again. Really well done videos. I’ll be using them for sure when I’m ready for my first build!

    Those contours really take the strat to another level. It just makes it right.

    Steaming out dents very satisfying. I'm amazed at how people toss their guitars parts around when making them. Not saying you do but others I've seen. I always have a pad or towel on the bench. Great job cutting the contours. It's a lot more work without a bandsaw. I used to do it with my 12".

      I usually use bench cookies to keep them from getting dented but obviously failed somehow. I would love a much bigger bandsaw and be able to do stuff like that. That said I also enjoy the hand carving.

    Looking good......I really like a strat where arm and body cuts have a very smooth transition, almost so it one shape and not a combination of 3 shapes. The new ones look so CNC!! Cant wait to see the neck!

    I've always loved that combination of cuts on a Stratocaster. One of those little details that makes a huge difference when you get it right.

    I had started making another Strat however; the power has gone in the shed and I can't get an electrician out until 22nd May :( In the meantime, I'll enjoy watching the progress on your guitar :)

    I want to love the spoke shave, but I just can’t figure it out that well. It’s always a struggle.

    Although steaming that little ding is an easy to remember technique, there are so many times when you-and the other builders I watch-bury little nuggets of brilliance so that they’re a task to find when needed. (Like who the @#$&$ did that great easy tang-removing file jig in what video??) The retired librarian that I am feels an urge to index stuff like this. But then the retired part kicks in and takes a nap.

      Yes, I agree. That grain needs to be celebrated. It’s almost asking for a burst. I also saw a Fender finish Natural Walnut. Reminded me of the George Harrison telecaster.

      If the wood is good natural amber would work well.

    why not use an angle grinder and a kutzall disc, or even a sanding disc? it is messy, i know, but it is faster and on certain woods it might even be easier to get a good surface..

    Some people complain about refinished strats because they are too 'rounded' or óversanded'... but the trouble with newer models (especially the last 15 years or so), they look dreadful because the machine finish is very accurate and requires little hand finishing, the result looks cheap and nasty. Do yourself a favour, take the roundover another 1/32 from standard and don't hold back with blending ALL the contours by hand for a result more akin to the original '54 guitar. Just do it mate, you know you should, last thing you want is all that effort to look like a Korean made Squier.

    • @Adventuresfromtheshedofdreams
      @Adventuresfromtheshedofdreams  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      My love of the strat comes from how rounded and sculptural that whole thing is, this one will be sanded to within an inch of it's life. I have a 60's reissue MIJ and that is very rounded, that's what I'm shooting for :)
