while I take everyone on the a journey of the guitar line. I still need to create production templates for the IL-41 and the Flyer along with a 30.2" baritone scale neck template. After those are completed, green light for production.

while I wrap up R&D. I have one more (30.2") baritone scale neck template to create. After that, everything is greenlight for production.
If you see anything you'd like, message me for pricing. Not pictured is a setneck template but I've got that.

Another at the shop. I received this bad ass this morning. I already have my mind set on adding my routers underneath for a full on table router setup. Doing so would make it a one stop shop for production.
Cheers!

Well, it was a sad yet beautiful day today for Eads Instruments.
It was sad as I had to say goodbye to the machine that was the heart of my shop for 4 years. The bandsaw held up and accomplished what it was asked to do but it was extremely unsafe. I don't think it's the end of that machine but certainly my time with it is over. Metalheads against animal cruelty/ neglect (Fans of ALL music welcome) !
! I was extremely lucky to get ahold of this .woodworking PWBS-14 that had a riser kit installed on it. My resaw heights went from 5.75" to 12" cuts. I can start doing matched tops for veneers. Huge game changer. Downside, I now need to order all new 20" blades for it to run. 🤣🔥. , , , ,

So this is absolutely wild. There's someone who builds or built a guitar with the Eads name. His guitar is in Goodwill at Tallahassee FL. On the market as a bass.
I'd love to find the Luthier of this and talk shop. That would be wild. Thank you Larry Stabenow for the heads-up. That's try a unique guitar.

Another successful = completed and in the books. and StewMac tools for the serious W. I also had to replace the electronics and the input jack.It turned out awesome and completely plays itself. This is better than the day it came in. 🔥❤️ With D'Addario and Co. 10 - 46's, it plays like a dream.

I mean StewMac does make great tools for . Just sayin'! Those Klein Tools lineman's are amazing for this job too. Also, makes amazing fretwire too.

Here's something pretty stellar. This neck combo (1 of 2) will be referred to as exotic. The fretboard material is and the neck blank was . Both logs were trees that were chopped, milled out and assembled in Warrenville.
I say 1 of 2 is because I do have another piece of cherry that would go as a neck. It gets a little thin at the top but still usable. I'd have to laminate another piece to it. That's something you won't see on any large manufacturer.
Putting feelers out. Since my table router decided to send my bit to outter orbit today, wondering if anyone on here has a table router/ table shaper they're willing to part with.
TIA! \m/
