John's bass necks are the craziest and the coolest necks ever

[@NiddNetworks]

the noise of your woodworking machines is sublime... sounds just like classical music!!!

[@JonLettsGuitars]

😆 Not really sure how to make the noise more tolerable. Sharper tools would help lol.

that padauk headstock is a beauty

[@JonLettsGuitars]

Thanks. Big and beautiful. 😊

No need for a barrel sander, drill press on highest speed I assume. Nice work

[@JonLettsGuitars]

Yea just a drill stand. A bobbin sander would be good because these burn without the oscillation. But it’s fine for headstocks. I have no joy fine sanding body edges with it but again, fine for rough sanding.

Real nice. I like your dragontailtip headstock shape a lot 👍🏻

[@JonLettsGuitars]

Thanks. I like it.
