Duff Beer Man Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Welp, im raising this post back up from the dead. I pulled these guitars back outta my closet as i am ready to start working on them again, and im not sure what im going to do, i look at them and just am not satisfied with them. I look at them and know i can do better, so im thinking about scraping them and starting over, i want these two guitars, but want them to be perfect and now looking at these they are far from perfect. Ill let you guys know what i decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 don't scrap them :] keep going until you're proud of it and wanna keep it forever... on a side note, im building a mirrored guitar too. Its alittle trickier than what you did, because its an SG with flat sides. I've ended up routing an SG shape into the flat top, and created a template for the mirror acrylic with that, so the mirror is flush to the wood. on a second side note, someone earlier said that they would like a textured mirror finish, before realising it was just the ceiling being reflected. that kind of texture can be made really easily; brush a thin layer of paint thinners over the back of the acrylic, and the miriror will start to bubble. Once its bubbled enough for your taste, get read with a shower and use a weak jet to wash away the thinners - voilla! good luck :] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
