  1. Annoyingly, for a guitar player i have very small hands and this makes using 12 string guitars a bit of... well... a handful (pun, suprisingly not intended) as most 12 strings i've tried have thicker necks than 6 strings. Can anyone give me some information on 12 string acoustic guitars with thinner necks (£300-£500 price range) Could anyone give a a quick or long (depending on how much you love helping) review of this... i cant find a decent one anywhere. Also, the neck looks pretty thin on this, but i've not tried out yet (obviously, otherwise i wouldn't need a review) so if ayone can confirm it has a thinner than usual neck, that would be greatly helpful. Thankyou (sorry for the similar post to one below, i don't know how to edit topic titles or delete topics / posts)
  2. How do i delete a topic or post? Also, how do i look back at the posts i've made, i know this can be done on the proboards forums but i can't seem to do it on here
  3. Oooooo I want to try that, I love lego and Star Wars and guitars so that would suit me quite well. There... apparently it fully works if i remember why
  4. Thats pretty much answered it... i knew that candy spray was a transparent, but i've seen some guitars on here which have used candy spray and didn't show any woodgrain. I'm not that knowledgeable on paints and finishes so it is pretty much the same thing for all paint finishes? clear sealer underneath for a show of woodgrain and primer to not show the woodgrain. I imagine this is pretty basic stuff, but i just wanna confirm.
  5. What has to be done to ensure that the grain of the wood does or doesn't show through a coloured finish... i thought it was all about what you used for the colours, however i noticed some guitars finished in candy spray paint that do show the wood grain and some finished in candy spray paint that don't show the wood grain so it can't be the coloured finish. Is it the used of a primer that does it? Any help is appreciated Cheers.
  6. Ahh, kk, the major thing i wanted to know was how to switch off one of the necks when using the other so thats all good. Cheers
  7. I think the guitar is a beauty, love the grey sunburst (or moonburst i think i've heard it be called before). I'll admit though, i'm not keen on the skull knobs u've used, they just look a little cheap in comparison... mabye its the matte finish, chrome ones may look better imo Also, i think you may like this http://www.creepypewter.com/Item024.html
  8. Does anyone have one... not a specific one, as i could probably adapt it to what i want, but i'm looking for a... well... 'starting place' So if anyone has one, can you please post it, thanks.
  9. The routed area for a truss rod... is it the same depth the whole lengh? or does it need to curve down? (does anyone have a sort of cross section picture of a guitar neck... real pic or diagram) cheers.
  10. Which would you constitute as Pink Floyd?
  11. I know that the distance from the nut to the 12th fret should equal the distance between the bridge and the 12th fret… so if there was a guitar with a 25” scale, it would be 12.5 inches between the nut and 12th, and 12.5 inches between the bridge and 12th… that I understand, but where on the bridge and nut do you measure from… the blue or the yellow line?
  12. How do i create these? it it done with a very very thin piece of dowel?... if so, what size dowel (and thus drill bit) is used (and where could i buy dowel that small?)
  13. What do you mean by fillet? also, would the silicone stuff go all the way down the truss rod, or just as the anchor? Sorry, these are probably basic questions, but the truss rod is the bit i'm most clueless on
  14. With a single action truss rod, does there need to be any glue involved in attaching it to the neck?
