eddiewarlock Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 sorry man, i can't help ya pout here, jé né parle françoise but in english i can help you as much as i can, and as far as i know, there's no need for a neck angle with a tele, if you're using a tele bridge, are you gonna have a headstock angle? or are you gonna leave it flat just like a regular tele? your project looks great man, that padouk is really beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePlague Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 with a regular telecaster bridge no neck angle is required. and eddie: ne doesn't have an accent on it. je doesn't either. it'd simply be je ne parle pas francais. (yes, i left out the cedille (sp?), i don't know the keystroke for it) *feels special that he knows a LITTLE french* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnewman Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 (edited) Looks great! That's some pretty fancy wood, and it looks like you did a really good job on the Leviathan body - let us know how it turns out. Ah, et je parle peu de français, aussi, s'il y a quelque chose que tu ne peux dire en anglais. C'est quelques ans depuis que j'ai l'etudié, mais peut-être je peux t'aider. Et bienvenu à projectguitar! Edited March 3, 2005 by jnewman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Zardoz, je deviens d'Ottawa, alors je parle un peu du francais aussi. Welcome to PG Forums! Nice-looking work.

Mickguard Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Paduak is a oily wood Titebound glue are suffisant strong for glued my wings on my neck ?? A guy tell me for the oily wood the best is 20/20 glues ??? ← I was working with a few boards of some exotic wood (don't remember the name, it's pretty obscure) that's also very oily...but it holds fine with normal wood glue. Et si tu as des problemes avec l'anglais, je pourrai faire quelques traductions aussi...il y a aussi ce site en francais qui semble bien...
