I am waiting for the delivery of the rosette I bought for this guitar, so I am getting other things done while waiting. I needed a method of drilling the 10mm holes in the classical style headstock. My solution can be seen in the pictures below, it works really well and allows me to drill the holes with my hand drill. I made this jig to be screwed to the headstock while drilling, I didn’t want the problem of the clamp slipping. The two small blind holes that the screws make are hidden by the machine heads when done.
I have made the bridge, it is not completely finished yet, I need to rub it down a bit more.
I still have the finger board to to do, I have reduced it down to the correct thickness so I need to cut the fret slots, this is a 25.6″ (650mm) scale and I do not have this scale marked out on my fret cutting jig so I will probably do that next.
