Nouseforone Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 wow what i understood is you need dimensions well try www.guitarbuild.com or ask someone who owns a warlock to help you(heck goto a music store that carries em and bring a ruler) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fehgalloway Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 so can anyone help me with it step by step plz I'm sorry, I didn't understand your whole post either, but from what I understood, you want to make a Warlock, and you need info on the size and on how to make a guitar. My best suggestion is going to the BC Rich website and reading all their info, I dont' know how good they are, but gibson has all sorts of info on scale, etc, so maybe that would work ok, otherwise, find out the info you need to build the guitar. Scale, size, parts, etc..go to your local music shop and measure it all up, take photos, note down everything that you can. I don't know anything about Warlocks, but I'm presuming it would be similarly built to just about every other guitar, bolt on, or glued, neck, etc.... Get a couple of books on building, you'll find links on here for the good ones, and use them to answer your step by step question. Start a thread in the in progress section, add lots of photos, and I'm sure people will help Not being rude, however, I would guess English is a second language. It's a little hard to understand what you're trying to say. Add a little puntuation (full stops, commas, etc) It breaks it up and makes it easier. Where are you from, by the way? Good luck, and let us know how you get on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simo Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 a Blacksmith? umm ok There's a Warlock plan on helliumbrz's site... http://helliumguitars.vilabol.uol.com.br/ altough I don't know how accurate that is to the original design.

eddiewarlock Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 The shape is accurate to an 80's warlock, however, since that plan isn't in cad, but on jpg, it'll be hard to take the measurements, my advice is to get a warlock body, measure it, and work from there, if i remember correctly my warlock measures 16" wide and 23" long, good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skibum5545 Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 Get this book. It will tell you anything and everything you need to know about building an electric guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerryL Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 RavenZ, It is my feeling you should build the Warlock exactly like the shape but put the hardware you decide, to put in it. It's not about making an exact copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerryL Posted October 31, 2004 Report Share Posted October 31, 2004 RavenZ, You need to find a hardwood supplier in your area. Get some nice hardwood that is wide enough for your body type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
