I just built a bass and one of the guys who makes necks and bodies for echo park made them the neck and body for me. Great work. Love echo park guitars and while mine is definitely "not" up to their finished specs, the parts are amazing well made and have a great feel.That looks great!
That's very cool! Have you ever seen eastwood guitars? They make a few electric tenors.
I don't see skimping on a bit that I will drill thousands of holes with over the course of years. I was planning to get a new Irwin, as mine is finally showing signs of dulling, and it has developed a slight wobble. I like Klein stuff though. It looks like essentially the same price as the Irwin but with a 3/8" shank. I think I'll give that a try. Thanks Dave.
Let me know what think, Lee. I've had really good luck with the Klein bits.
Alternatively, if you feel like spending more money, the Hougen mini hole cutters (they call them RotaCut) are simply the best thing I've used. They have a spring loaded arbor that rides in the center punch hole. Basically, if you locate the center punch correctly, it's going to drill where you want it. I've barely touch the unibit since I got these.
