    Looks great! You can definitely cut faster and with less passes. Plastic is nothing to cut. This bass is shaping up well!

    Very exciting watching a new skill unfold!

    Looking forward to this. Got a desktop cnc and no idea what feed/speed to even start testing with.

      Use an O-flute cutter and a very fast feedrate.

      Bingo!

    The point around 4:40. I have only 1 instrument with a laminated neck, an Ibanez, and that was the first thing thing I noticed when I bought it. The grain is oriented not for aesthetic, but for each piece to fight rach other into submission. Jotoba. I live in fl, and it is the ONE instrument that I adjust the least, save for a 1974 fender jazz, which is a one piece, quartersawn maple. Laminating done right is a good thing- properly milled, empirically proven through practice in manufacture, one piece is also good. I'd risk saying that it is availability of material that dictates the choice of the independent maker/diy contingent.
    In construction, woods chosen for superior crushing strength down the grain are used in load-bearing. Let them sit, in a dry warehouse even- some will twist, bow, etc.
    Multilaminate, lumber based textiles? Less prone. Interesting subject, worthy of anyone sleuthing further for themselves- someone might come up with some neat ideas

      @HighlineGuitars I have no idea why this comment posted to the wrong vid- I was commenting on your vid regarding laminated necks... and it ends up here.

    Oh yes, the reason we all get married, pickguard dust.

    Hello, great video and great project! I am new to this and I am thinking of going to a workshop where they work with CNC or laser cutting to ask them to help me cut a custom pickguard. Could you tell me how you transferred the model and measurements of the pickguard to the CNC machine so that it would fit well to the instrument? Thank you!

      You have to use a CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) program. I use MeshCAM. This program is used to set up the toolpaths for the CNC machine. Once the paths are set up, it writes a g-code file that is sent to the CNC to carve the part.

      ​@@HighlineGuitars Thanks for the information, I saw that in your other videos you talk in more detail about how to work with a cam system, I am going to review them to learn more about the topic. I'm going to subscribe

    I realy think I want a cnc machine. I am so lost on which one to get.

    After making a few of this you will see that its possible to make a pickguard in 5-6 minutes, well, not including the time for swapping the router bit and zeroing the machine again if you use that method.

    Can you make a pickguard for me? I have an early 80s Memphis p bass. I haven't been able to find a pickguard that fits. The old pickguard is broken around the jack.

      No. I don’t make parts. Only complete guitars of my own design.

    Do you sell cnc taps for guitars

    Ibused tonreally enjoy your vids, but the new creepy close up intros make me want to turn away. Still trying to hang on for now for the good info though.

      Im using them to weed the people who shouldn’t be here.
