Yes, I was planning on having both on at same time, but is there a way to have the one wired so its quieter? for example, i like playing my Washburn with the bridge pickup, but i would like it so its the bridge pickup full blast all the time, and the neck pickup maybe half? all the time though, and no knob, this possible?

fretting tools, what are they? i got acces to alot of tools for free, so, just let me know, and if they are available i will use them
By The Way, the reason i am being so persitant on building a neck, i am so short on cash, its not funny, thats why i want to build a neck, also, i want to have the guitar finished and playable in hopefully 3 weeks

If i use 2 Humbuckers does it have to have a volume/tone and pickup selecter switch?? or can i just run the ground wirre to the bridge, then the other ones to the jack??

well, i was really wanting to do a 24 fret, and, i figure we all have to start somewhere and somehow on building guitar parts, so i figured might as well build the neck, i get the wood fairly cheap, so i might as well try to make it work, i read something about radiusing the fretbaord? you have to put a slight curve on the fretboard?? am i correct?

Hello
I just joined here minutes ago, I started building an electric guitar this morning, but, where are my manners? My name is Curtis, I live in Ontario Canada and have been playing guitar for 2 years, anyways, I started building a Jackson RR5 replica this morning, I have been planning it out for over a month now, and finally got the chance to start building it at my neighbours wood working shop.
After I came home, I phoned my local and trusted guitar shop, asked bout a pricing for a generic 22 fret 6 string neck, i almost fell to the floor when he said 225 bucks starting price!!! I then found this website about building a neck.
Anyways, when i go to build a neck, can i take the back part, route the channel for the truss rod, then glue on the top peice, then the fret board? how do I route the truss rod? go deeper and deeper? or all the same? I am a newbie to this site, and to buildin guitars, so maybe a little help would be VERY much appreciatede
Thanks alot
Curtis
