Hi everyone,:)

I'm just starting out learning to make my own electric guitars and thought this would be a great place to learn some valuable woodworking skills and eventually pass some info on to others.
I’ve been working on my first build for the last 3 weeks and have all ready brought a router, drill press, orbital sander and jig saw. Its coming along good for my first one but and having trouble carving the bodie using a spokeshave any tips on using one would be great.

Any way would love to here from others on guitar building and general wood working techniques.

Thanks
