Dr. Jabsco Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 distance from bridge to back of guitar. Height of bridge maybe. i think it would be eayser to just buy one, unless you have a milling machine handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southpa Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 I was tempted to make one out of some of the 16 ga. stainless I have lying around a la Angus Young signature SG series. I have some 3/32 stainless rod too, would just have to figure a way to roll the sheet around the rod. There is always a way. But I already made the pickguard and control plate from the same material, highly polished. Too much shine hurts the eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
