On the face of the headstock I laid out the tuner hole locations using dimensions I got from one of the discussion forums on the web.... thanks to John Hall of Bluescreek Guitars for posting this!
I drilled the tuner pilot holes with my Dremel. Once I get the Grover Sta-Tite tuners I ordered from Stewmac, I can drill the holes to the proper size. Also next on my to-do list.... gluing on the Indian rosewood headstock veneer!
I fretted my ebony fingerboard with Stewmac medium/higher fretwire.
Fretting a fingerboard creates stress in a fingerboard due to the fact that you are basically wedging the frets into slots in the fingerboard. This will cause a fingerboard to warp. To counteract this, I've clamped the fingerboard bending it in the opposite direction. By leaving it like this for a day or so, I hope to release those stresses and flatten out the fingerboard again so thatthe warp will be reversed, at which point I can glue it to the neck. Its so exciting to see my guitar coming together like this! Hope you enjoyed my updates!
