Re: Ed Elliott, Step-by-Step Building of 4 Mosrite Custom Clones
Hey Dennis,
Thanks! I was going to post a bunch of comments between
the pics, then I thought Nah.............One picture is worth
a thousand words, maybe it will inspire some young luthiers
and old ones like me might find it interesting. I get a big kick
checking out other builders shops, I think other people do to.

Are all these going to be bolt-on necks, or will you be doing some set-necks? It'd be interesting to see how everything is lined up before it all gets glued down. Bolt-ons, you can pretty easily adjust ... how does it go with set necks?

I wish I'd paid more attention in woodwork class at school now instead of goofing around with my mates.
What a great skill to have.

So Ed, what did you end up making the cabinet carcass' out of? And the colum detail, is that just a table leg cut in Half? Those are some pretty sweet cabinets. Kevin

Great pictures! I've been thinking of building my own Mosrite myself but seeing I've never built a guitar before it won't be so easy for me. Thanks for the pictures!
