cut a jazz body for me? I'll provide the wood!

Post by brandon. »

So I'm getting that itch to put a guitar together again.


I've got 2 halves of a poplar body blank that needs to be glued together. I was wondering if someone would be willing to let me send the wood to them, and then have them cut it into a jazzmaster, with all the standard routes and holes... and then send it back. I've got some money for this project, so if you feel up to it, let me know what you can do and name your price.

If this is in the wrong forum, I apologize, hopefully a mod can move it or something.

Thanks!

It really ought to be in the classifieds but as it's not that common a request and the people who would be able to help are much more likely to see it here I think it's fine to leave it in this forum provided you make a thread to detail as it's made if you go ahead with it.

I wouldn't ship that poplar to anybody. Poplar is $15 - $20 at the mill. Shipping is gonna be at least $15.
