Thanks Danny, I hope that he's a happy camper also. You do mean to swap the tuners so that whear you put the screw is pointing down instead of up? If thats what you mean, I think there's enough room to do that I'll try that tommrow and let you know how it goes. Thanks again.

Re: First mosrite
Actually what I meant was, the tuner head and shaft are on the upper side towards the end of the headstock and the string post is towards the string guide/zero fret as depicted in the photo here.


Here's yours. See the difference? I know they are different types of tuners but they all mount the same direction for geometrical reasons regardless whether mounted on a right or left handed guitar. Not trying to criticize you craftsmanship, just trying to help you from making a big mistake.

Re: First mosrite
Now I see what you mean, ok.
Hay I don't think that you would intenionaly critisize any one's project, I don't belive your like that. You try to help, and as you've seen I can use all the help that I can get. Didn't know that there was a sertain way the tuners went.
Thanks for the information, it's well appreciated.

Re: First mosrite


Ok guys this is the last of the pics of my mosrite project, along with the fine pic of the back of my nephews head, who is the recepiant of the guitar I just finished. He is smilling, and his pants are wet,



Again I would like to thank Danny for the dementions, Ed Eliott for the very nice pups, and Jason Brushes for the pdf file of the body. With out the help of these people the smile on this kids face would not have been possible. I'm keeping the smile for my self
