mrkil

thanks a bunch.

thats what i needed to hear

cheers

thats what i figured.

now does anyone know a way to wire in a line out for the valve jr

hey guys a have a quick question.

is it possible for me to plug me valve jr head into my Princeton 112 combo?

the head has 3 outs on the back 4, 8, and 16 ohm

and the combo has a power amp in on the front.

just wondering if this is possible and which line out to use from the head.

thanks

looking to build a carve top tele semi. 2 p-90's with a bigsby and a bound top.

very similar to this

walnut body from this

i play with an old Garnet combo stencil amp made under the name Pax, with an modded Epiphone Valve Jr. as a pre amp.

oh i definitley won't be keeping the starcaster logo.

i just haven't got around to picking up some acitate to do the custom logo.

thanks guys

the next will be a scratch built project for sure

1 week away from 36.

but not feeling a day over 19

the final product other than needing a new set of strings.

any pics of your first one?

coool

use a hand planner blade at a 45 deree angle and drag it over the body backwards. this will peel the primer right off

here's some progress pics of the second one. i like to call it the 51'er

first off i picked up a starcaster neck (i didn't wanna spend a huge amount for a neck on a plywood body)and cleaned leveled the frets.

(mmmm i like pickles)

you can see some of the spot filler showing through around the bridge area, but once painted it's gone completely

and this is where i'm at now.

and this is where i'm at now.

not going to clear coat since i'm going for an early type of finish.

well I finally signed up for the forum, since I've been reading it I figured I may aswell.

I'm on my second build now ( not really a build more of a rebuild)

the first was an ebay plywood hollow body with a set neck I picked up awhile ago.

It came with junk pup's, nut, bridge, pots, wiring and badley setup frets.

so it went from this

to this

second was a Strat style sort of jackson style body found in the garbage.

it was made for rear access and solid mounted pup's no pickguard.

i was looking for something fun to do, so........

this was my design idea
