SwedishLuthier Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 I think that I have one. Let me check when I get back home tonight (obviously goofing around at work right now...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arling777 Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I've seen that one... It's not neck through, so I guess I'll jsut use the body as a template, then get the distances (bridge, pickup placement) from my other guitar, since the two have the same necktrough neck from Carvin. This is my first guitar build and it's seems like basically all I gotta do is: 1. Make Templates/measure some stuff 2. Cut the body shape out, then cut out the space the neckthrough will occupy 3. Glue the wings on 4. Route for wiring, pickups, etc. 5. Put on a wicked looking finish (still haven't decided what to do) 6. Wire 'er up/drop in the hardware I'm not doing anything really fancy, so it shouldn't be too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 There is one at www.guitarbuild.com if I remember correctly.. I've seen that one... It's not neck through... Try reading past the first page of downloads - there's neck-thru Explorer in both DXF and DWG format (alphabetized under N, for neck-thru).

arling777 Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 That one is an ESP explorer. I've actually been thinking about doing that or a rhodes v instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arling777 Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 The one on guitarbuild.com is an ESP style explorer. I've ruled out doing that and am going to go with the Rhodes V or just copy my other guitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiewarlock Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I printed one from the guitabuild.com forum with the KL headstock and came out HUGE, and the headstock was smallish... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arling777 Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Yeah I'm all set for templates etc. I don't have to worry about the headstock though cuase I'm not building the neck. Thanks for the replies though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
