I learned so much about jig and fixture design and construction from it. In addition to the birds beak joint and neck construction methods. Larry

I just completed my first birds beak joint using the course from Ramon Tristani and Robbie. This post is to thank Ramon for all the help he gave me. I would not have had this turn out near as well without his advice, Any time I had an issue he was right there to help. I still have some clean up and fitting issues but nothing major. Ramon is a great guy, and again I can't thank him enough. I look forward to any future courses he may be involved with. Ray

The Bird’s Beak course is excellent, just like all the other courses I have purchased from your site. Russ

I've been working on my Bird's Beak necks following Ray's course (thank you Ray!). Over the last week I've made two different headstocks to fit a neck blank as practice. Last weekend I did one after the classic Fleta shape. Eric

I watched most of the course over the Thanksgiving break. Fantastic material, and great presentation. Lots of good practical pointers / reminders in there on fine control of chisels and the logical sequence to cut a fine joint like this. Eric

I just finished watching the entire thing. Excellent course; very well thought out and presented. I recommend anyone considering to make this joint to get the course. Taylor

I am excited about this course. I have tinkered with making this joint several times from the Greven info, but never been satisfied. Elaine

I have been going through the bird peak parts of the course and really like it. In the past I have read articles and looked at web sites with descriptions of the joint. I understand how it goes together but I never tried as I am not really knowledgeable with complex visible joinery. I always looked at the precision of some of the cuts and never convinced myself that I could do it. Ramon describes the technique to make the precise square surfaces required. He clearly laid out where precision was required. His instruction was detailed enough to show the directions needed to make the fine cuts chisel cuts without blow out. I have a 0 parlor coming up after I finished my current project and plan to follow the instructions. It is a perfect neck for that guitar. John
