Well, hello everybody! We seem to have grown a bit! Great! I'm going to do my best to make this little club a good place for luthier info. I'll be adding to...
We need experts here, for answering questions! I am just a "wannabe" luthier, so I'm useless for another couple of years! LOL! Found a couple of sites just...
Just found a new link, from a fellow Cheap Trick fan. This one's for luthier supplies...look for Stewart-MacDonald's in our link section.<br><br>Wren...
I recently graduated from the Roberto-Venn school of luthiery and now live in the Seattle area working for Tacoma guitars. If anyone here has any questions ...
Hi, my name's Wren. I am extremely interested in Roberto-Venn. I'm in Maryland and am planning a visit to the campus next spring. How did you like the school?...
This is kind of a variation on an 8 string bass using standard stuff, and I could use some tips on measuring out bridges and things like that. If you're ...

I've included a couple of pictures of my CAD model in the Photos area. This model isn't exact since I've eyeballed most of the features, but it looks pretty...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. The photo area is working, although it is taking an unusually long time to bring up the pictures. I resized them...
