This could be git related or not. So, what's on your workbench at the moment?
I have 4 scarf joint necks in different stages of work.
A 25" scale pine 5 string neck for a Banjo-Res, A 25" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Strat-Res build, A 24 & 1/2" scale Red Oak neck for my 6 string Double Cut Tele build and a 27" scale 6 string Baritone Conversion neck for a Modern Strat body I have.

This is the Ibanez Artcore AS53-SRF.
Semi-hollow body & neck made of Sapele and a Walnut fretboard.
So it has the ES335 construction, but ES339 size. The ceramic Infinity pickups in it. Thinking of switching out the pickups for a set of Seymour Duncan PRails that I have with the Triple Shot Rings. I'll take some time to mull it over.
Haven't had much time with it because my wife has been in the hospital for 2 weeks now having a Hip replacement and dealing with complications from a stroke.
So, after finishing my 10 string Lyre I decided to build a second but, after looking around the internet, I decided on a 16 stringer!
This one is slightly longer and wider to accommodate the extra strings.
I have cut out and glues the body, drilled the string and tuner holes and now have to finish rounding off the edges and sand it before adding the electrics, back and sound boards and finally, stain and polish!
It`s a simple build but very enjoyable and the finished result on the 10 string sounds great. Hopefully the 16 stringer will be as good.
I might even try to load a video!
Would love to see a picture of either lyre!
My apologies, I don't believe I ever posted a photo of my most recent build. This one was sold as a fundraiser for St Jude's. Just scored a half dozen new boxes today, need to figure out what to build for this year's auction.
I like that one.
I have a Leo Quan Badass bridge on my 59 like Paige’s & one with a Gibson wrap around bridge, it’s night & day compared to the original bridge?
Just finished this up as a donation to a St Judes fundraiser. Started out as a Rocky Patel #6 box, nice and deep so I thought I'd go the acoustic electric route. 24" scale, rod piezo, scuffed up the box and mod podged a weathered flag image on it, mated it up to a flame maple neck and Brazilian cherry fretboard. Actually found a lovely maple 1X6 at Menards with a lot of flame to it, can get quite a few necks from that.
