  1. did u clear coat over the krylon? if so, how many coats and what type? if not, how many coats of krylon?
  2. no, that's not what i meant by active. active is active electronics. as in battery-powered. actually, im planning on using both at all times. no switch. also, i talked to the guy at the hardware store, and he said sanding sealer goes under stain, not enamel.
  3. change of plans. the guy wants $250 to paint it. yea right! im thinkin emerald green krylon. can i clear coat over enamel? thanks in advance.
  4. good idea, tho im on a budget. ill see if i can get him to work that in.
  5. ok, been a while since an update, but i'm back. got it all ready to paint, found a buddy to do it cheap. he does cars on the side, so he uses house of kolor paints. he told me to just scuff it up, like 120-200 grit, and he'll do the rest (primer, etc). i was thinking color-wise, that Limetime Pearl would be a sweet color. anyone else agree?
  6. where do i begin?? 1)get the parts before u begin even a template for the body. 2)use a depth stop for the screw holes on the heel of a bolt on neck. even if it's a piece of tape wrapped round the bit. i actually broke thru the ebony fingerboard of my warmoth-made neck. since it was already ruined (so i thought), i chucked it and snapped off the headstock. that's when i realized that i could've just gotten a new fingerboard and frets. doh. 3) ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS have a steady source of income before and during a project. $$=good. 4)If you aren't going to paint it yourself, find a buddy to do it cheap. i'm currently being ripped off by the guy that's gonna paint (or is painting) my RR3. i paid him $100, then found someone that would do it for $75. oh well, pizza and beer fund for the guy, i guess. 5) Measure twice, walk away to think, measure some more, stare at it, cut once.
  7. talk to matt when he gets back. maybe he'll let the IMPALER go. doubt it, but worth a try.
  8. Hey. Name's Casey. I'm from Louisville, OH, USA. Bought my first guitar for 17th b-day. a firstact from the walmart shelves. started building an RR3 copy around january of this year in Woodshop class. put it on hold for a while, b/c of lack of $$. got it all ready to finish and wire now, but lack of $$ again, so no way to buy finish
  9. ur in luck i just decided i dont have use for my SH-6. it was going to go in the bridge on my new RR3 im making, but i need to get a passive. here's the musicians friend info. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/fg=41/...ase_pid/300042/ pm me. it's completely new, wires are uncut. i can send it in the original box if u'd like. it's black by the way.
  10. just make sure all it pulls is air
  11. or u could use the stuff and invest in a SCUBA outfit. kinda pricey, tho. might drive up the profit margin a tad.
  12. 25 to ship?? wow, didnt realize itd be that much. nvm, i guess i wasted ur time. lol
  13. i really hate ebay. i want that wood, but it wont take my debit card. it works fine on paypal, tho...
  14. i havent even touched it yet, but id kinda like to hear it in my firstact. call it curiousity that will most likely kill the cat. good soldering practice too!
