theodoropoulos Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) this project is just for fun and only cause i wanted to feel the scalloped neck!!!the story goes like this: i had an ibanex rx-40 i got rid off the black colour and used Sculpt Nouveaou patinas to have this oxide colour.The pickguard is also oxidezed iron..i used a floyd rose from my BC rich and only one single coil without even pots!! i made an experiment also ...i made a conversion in the neck pocket and with the screw i managed to have any angle i want..So i could add even a tune-o-matic bridge!!! i used a hinger between the neck pocket and the neck as you can see! and of course i scalloped the neck VERY ROUGH in order to feel the gap!! this project is just for fun!!!!!!!

ScottR Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Very interesting effect. I certainly looks like oxidized copper and bronze. It even has a metallic sheen. It makes me think of some of the processes NotYou would do, which is a high complement. SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not something that would normally appeal to me, but on yours the color patterns look very good, even planned, plus you get the patina of oxidized metal. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product. Nice job. SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Script is a Marker company here in the U.S. ..... too funny. I though you were the master of markers for a minute. Your friends guitar in the link is beautiful. All of his builds look amazing ! . Nice work on the finish here too. I like it. Markers or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
