Hughes Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Hey, i had to correct a mistake i made in my trem cavity and i went a little to deep allowing less then an inch for my pickup routs (not routed yet). instead of making a terrible mess with miss matched wood + filler, i came up with an idea of putting nice figured maple inside which is about 1/4" thick. with this, it allows you to have more room for pickup depth and allows you to have a visually appealling trem rout for those who arent fond of covering it up. is this a good idea or will it just make a mess? yes, i know, im a knob for routing to deep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psw Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Call it an "internal tone plate", make it a feature and your mistake gone wrong, will be a brilliant innovation. Soon you will have a tutorial outlining exactly how to install and retrofit this feature... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughes Posted April 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 haha i put it in and am filling the small gaps that were left, it actually looks quite nice and when i stain it red along with the top of the guitar, i think it will look like a nice mistake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
