Electric Flapjack Guitars: Blog

I've learned a lot from other guitar builders over the years, and so this blog is a way for me to share my own build experiences and hopefully let others learn from my success and mistakes!

Disaster strikes for a second time as the CNC-router decides to do not what I asked of it, and I figure out how to make laser-cutter toolpaths in Fusion 360.

A guitar neck sits on the workbench, with the fretboard covered in masking tape to leave just the ferts showing. Half the frets have black sharpie on them, waiting to be shaped, the rest are shiny where they've been worked on.

In which I work on the frets for my prototype offset build, check out the nice Mastery bridge unit, and try coding up some of my own effects with the Hoxton Owl pedal.
