I make no excuses or apologies.
This album cover is by an artist named Patrick Nagel, who did a lot of very stylish pieces like this, most of them a lot racier than this.
No, not my music. I don't play much any more. I spend more time with the band saw than the band.

This beautiful instrument was built from a teak cutting board that I got for free from Home Depot for review. 32" Eden neck, active electronics. Teak is hard enough for a simple oiled finish. This one was built with a minimum of tools, mostly by hand, to show that it can be done and how.

This is the saw I use for cutting fret slots - a Zona 35-380 dovetail saw. It has the correct kerf of 0.022" for a fret slot, and has an 8" long blade, is long enough to work with my slotting jig. ( StewMac's saw is 0.023". ) The spine on the back engages the jig to set the cutting depth. Well, actually, I got the saw first and built the jig around it.
