Drak Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I'm ready to do some more binding, but instead of the regular w/b/w/b/w stuff, I think I want to do something different. Good sources out there? Thanks amigos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryeisnotcool2 Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 well dupaulesupply.com i think is a good place for shell, and for binding i make my own using diferent woods on the rh1 i used maple/walnut/bass wood. they worked well, also holly and pear wood are good for bending and you can die them different colors easily. if you have access to a thickness sander you can sand down some strips of the wood to like 1/16 then they will bend nice for you, and also cut them to the rough widths needed so they bend even easier. im thinking of getting one of those "shark" steamers for the house and using it with a pvc tube to steam the wood for an hour or two then bending it on a mold of my body design this way it will be preshaped before i glue it up.

Morben Guitars Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Warmoth has Pearloid Binding that I used on my last guitar...pretty stunning stuff, I haven't seen it on any other guitars. Goes great if you're using a pearloid pickguard as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
