Cloud Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 (edited) I was in the process of removing the fretboard from the neck and everything was goign smoothly and the fretboard cracked. When this happened I somehow managed to also crack the neck itself so I just gave up on it (ain't much of a lose at 20 bucks for the neck). I am looking for a 3x3 style neck to fit my les paul styled project. It has to be the bolt on style neck as well. If possible I am looking to buy tuners as well such as grover, sperzel, or schaller locking tuners preferably either gold, black, or two tone black and gold. I have some stuff for trade if anyone is interested. I'd appreciate any good offers since I am trying to keep the total cost down. A few other things I am looking for are a les paul style switch, floyd rose routing templates, and pickup templates. 16 x 18.2gb ST118202LC scsi hard drives with 80pin conneters( got as factory refurbs and haven't used them yet so there going as is). Largish bird cages for those who are into birds.One is suitable for a cockatiel and has a stand. The other would be good for smaller parrots like african greys I suppose. Couple CPU waterblocks for anyone into highend pc cooling lastly for anyone into RC I have a TXT-1 that I am parting out or will sell whole minus the speed controller(first thing I sold to buy some new tools), and I have batteries, chargers, spare parts, e-maxx tranny(2-speed), 3ch remote,etc. I am also willing to sell this stuff if you want anything, but don't have what I am looking for. Pictures are availible upon email request at sephiroth2029@aol.com. Edited November 11, 2004 by Cloud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud Posted November 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 Well I am looking more for the locking tuners only because I have a floyd rose in the guitar and a roller nut instead of the typical locking nut. I don't plan to completely dive the strings so the Locking tuners should be adequate to keep it somewhat in tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Executioner606 Posted November 12, 2004 Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 (edited) Well I am looking more for the locking tuners only because I have a floyd rose in the guitar and a roller nut instead of the typical locking nut. I don't plan to completely dive the strings so the Locking tuners should be adequate to keep it somewhat in tune. I forgot to mention they were locking tuners. Wouldnt be interested in a d-tuna would ya ? Edited November 12, 2004 by Executioner606 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 The tuners sound good then, but not really in need of the d-tuna at this point. Mostly I am trying to keep the cost down so anything extra will have to wait until I get the basics. For now to complete the guitar I need to either attempt a neck repair( I have the stuff so I will try it and see if it can hold up for a month or so until I get some more cash flow rolling in), I need another EMG active pickup preferably the 81 for the bridge, and the tuning pegs to complete the hardware aspect of this project.

Cloud Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 still looking for a neck. I attempted to build one, but I just don't think I can pull it off with my current level of skill. I am going to wait until I get a few templates to make a neck so I don't waste wood.

sjaguar13 Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 (edited) I have a les paul style neck. It has tuners, but I don't know if you still need them. I have a couple LP switches. I also have an 81 that was in an Epiphone I got. The wiring was crap, so I took out the pickups. I don't plan on sticking the same ones back in. Let me know what you are interested in, and I can get some pictures. Edited November 17, 2004 by sjaguar13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted November 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 well I need to make a run to some local stores so I will see whats availible. Not sure if I still need the neck because the damage was minor enough for me to do some repairs. Now the switch I still do need though.

Cloud Posted November 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Well I checked a local store and found them to be hidiously overpriced. Anyhow I am still looking for a set of emg 81/85 with pots etc(can be the new style or old as long as they are in working order), some locking tuners, and a V-amp 2. My b-day came up so now I have some cash to play with again lol. Really I only prefer to send paypal because of the fraudulent activities going on with checks and MO's in the mail.

guitarhappy Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 I have had excellent experiences with Specialty Guitars in AZ. Purchases, info and even installation & repairs - I live in the metro Phoenix area. I love the quality, price, and ease of use of my new Sperzel tuners. Paul is very knowledgable and a real player that shares his personal knowledge to help his customers. I steer all my guitar buddies his way. Check him out! www.specialtyguitars.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 K I will give them a look(can't hurt eh?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted November 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 K well I am still looking for a complete V-amp 2 in good working condition as well as locking tuners. Let me know guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted November 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Ok scratch the tuners off the list. I just ordered a set of Satin Chrome Sperzels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted December 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Well you can also scratch the V-amp off that list as well. Pretty much all I really can use right now is a portbal usb recording unit such as an M-Audi Omnistudio or similar with decent sampling rates (but not over the top expensive since MF has them for 199).
