68 lost souls

Ooops! I knew there was a reason no one was replying. http://aldi.ie/ie/html/offers/58_5365.htm Sorry bout that. Hope some people have some opinions.

Hey guys, Looking through the weekly specials in the supermarket near me and saw this. Reckon it would be good for refinnishing?

LOL. The first neck there is the one I was looking at getting. I think I shall stay far away from them then. Im annoyed now. Its hard to find a realitively inexpensive left handed strat neck these days and I missed an auction for a mighty might I was watching by a few minutes oh well. What about these guys, the EDEN necks, I see quite a few knocking around ebay? And I could maybe get a paddle head and cut it. http://stores.ebay.ie/diyguitars

Hey, not sure if this is in the right forum, has any one ever dealt with these guys on ebay? Im looking at buying a neck from them. Anyone know what the necks are like? They look pretty nice from the photos., http://stores.ebay.ie/Taisamlu-Musical Thanks.

It may not be easy and I am not sure of the results but I am experimenting. I want to see what I can do. I was given this projecy for free and so I am using it as a time to try new things befpre I mess about with a more expensive project. We will see what the results are like.

No sorry I wasnt very clear. I plan on sort of inlaying the diamond plate with acrilyc.

Thanks for the replies guys. Looks like I may not be going with it over the complete body now as I have decided to run with a diamand plate cover. There will be graphics under the diamand plate so the seams will be hidden. Plan on cutting some designs into the diamand plate and adding some clear plexi glass over it. Should come out nice. Will be waiting about 7 weeks before I do all this though. Have another project on the go first.

Yes I have searched and seen the other threads about tranperency film and slides etc. but I am totally lost in it all. So here I have some questions to clear some things up. 1) The stuff you use for overhead projectors; is that the stuff you use if you are leaving the slide on the guitar and clearing over it? 2) I am usin a laser jet is that right? 3) What type of coating to I put over the printed side, if any? 4) I know its printed in reverse so Im assuming that means that it goes printed side down? 5) I am thinking about doing a whole body top like this so will I print out on 4 A4 sheets and then centre them trimming off the excess and mounting them initially with spray mount and clear over it all? 6) Do I use sprey mount to keep them down before mounting them? Sorry about all the really basic questions I am totally new to all this. Thanks again. PS I plan on using something like this graphic

Looks cool, headstock really reminds me of one of my own actually so probably a bit biast, lol.(Cant find picks of mine online anymore all the old ones are dead and the pics I had are on the old harddrive but was very simlar except it was level at the top rather then stepped horns.) Cant wait too see it all done. Good work and Im loving the inlays.

Hey, Ive been gone from here for a while but I remember having a thread about this about a year or more ago, it was for a Voodoo SG copy, someone said in there where you can get them cant remember off the back of my hand, I remember though they also suggested not recessing in the back cover but rather screw it straight on the back giving the recess more depth. Hope that helps in some way.

Thanks MoCaster. As I said I know nothing about them so it's good to have a place to get advice. Yeah I have a few ideas for it. Ill need it for painting guitars obviously but it will come in handy for the cars and bykes to inflate the tyres in a hurry. Im sure Ill get use out of it.

Hi, I saw this in store over here in Ireland I was wondering if it would be any good for spraying and airbrushing. I cant link straight to the page here is a link to the homepage http://aldi.ie/ you have to click on Thursday special buys 2nd March. I havent done any work with sprays before but I will be starting soon and this looks like a good price. Should I get it? Thanks

Go to the local stores and ask if they have any broken ones in the back they cant sell or anything. Got my 12-string for 20 euro over here in one of the local guitar shops here. Alternatively post a request for them on message boards, got my first project guitar that way. She is a beautiful JEM Replica, plays like a dream.

Is nobody able to help me?

OK I got some photos up, as you can see its a pretty complex brake and wont just sit back in place if I where to just glue it straight back on. http://photobucket.com/albums/e196/68_lost_souls/ Any help would be appreciated.
