Roy's Electric Guitar, Chapter 10

The binding strips have been glued in place. I clamped the guitar body firmly to the table so as to apply a lot of pressure without it moving. I applied the super-glue to about an inch or so of binding, held it in place, then sprayed the accelerator (dries glue). Pictured are some of the items used for this job.



There is much clean-up after this step. First the body was sanded with an orbital sander. This removed most of the glue. Then finished up by hand. The next step will be to rout cavities for humbucker pickups and tremelo tailpiece.
