Mahelcaya Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Good job! that guitar is beautiful ! I work a lot with mohogany it looks and sounds great ! What about the pickups, are the high output and powerfull? I usually use Dimarzio Tone zone, Hum from hell and Evo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82DeanZ Posted January 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 hey Mahelcaya, The Dimarzio Joe is not quite as hot as the EVO that I have in my other homemade guitar, but it sounds sweeter. It's hard to describe. The EVO almost fizzles while the Joe chimes. Thanks for the complement. I like all of your mahogany guitars as well, especially "Custom Paul." Best Regards, Mike.

!!METAL MATT!! Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Hey mike iam thinking of useing an oil finish on my IMPALER and I was just wounding how does the tung oil effect the wood grain does it still high light the grain the way A laquer finish would? !!METAL MATT!!

82DeanZ Posted January 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Hey Matt, Not quite the same way. It does deepen the grain effect much like simply wetting the wood. You're not going to get the same depth as a laquer finish, however. I will say that the tung oil is very complimentary with mahogany and it really brought out the birdseye figure in the neck. I'll look forward to seeing what you decide to do with the IMPALER. Best Regards, Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
