boundsteelblues Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 What grit paper do you use for filing the fret ends on the disc sander? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundsteelblues Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Never mind. I heard it on the second play. What grit paper do you use for filing the fret ends on the disc sander? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helldunkel Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Proxon can only supply 150 grit for the finest disk grit over here so I have no other choice, cant even remember what I said on the video but I was under antibiotics with a massive ear infection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boundsteelblues Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Beautiful guitar. When did you install the side dots? I watched the vids, but I can't remember where that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helldunkel Posted September 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Beautiful guitar. When did you install the side dots? I watched the vids, but I can't remember where that was. thank you There are many steps which I did not show in my videos. I am using an exclusive material for the side dots, a luminescent material which is only 0.5mm thick but 5 times more luminescent then the regular luminescent dots which you can find on the market. I must make a very superficial hole in order to inlay it using some super glue to hold it in place. Once its set and dry I then mask the fingerboard and neck to protect it because I then shoot some clear lacquer on top of the dots to protect them.
