  2. If it was mine.....i would just do a super thick clear coat or some light color stains, witha thick clear coat.
  3. thanx again....Radio Shack hear i come! WHHEEEEE!
  4. JUst wondering what all i could use as a contact cleaner?
  5. switch it up, put a 500 on the bridge and 250s on the mid and neck, or vice versa? just a thought
  6. CCR is a great way to learn. Any basic three chord song, or three with a relative minor. I learned on CCR, Skynryd, and Classic Country. Then learned the newer rock styles after i understood how a song works! good luck! bj
  7. Find an Acrylic compatible clear coat. Deft will work, I have used it over freehand art before. I would spray at least 5 coats. but thats just me... I sprayed 9 coats on the last strat body i did and didnt have to sand between coats....but I think i got lucky. Good Luck and post pics of your progress
  8. no classic country fans here? bluegrass? hmmm... Roy Nichols, Chet Atkins, Albert Lee, Jerry Reed? I like everything. Merle and Waylon to Mr. Bungle and Supafuzz to JD Crowe and the new south. And some of the new guys in country are amazing players. Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Vince Gill(not really new anymore) Steve Wariner etc. Give me a TELE!
  9. I live between Louisville KY and Cincinnatti Ohio. WEEEEE and welcome!
  10. I converted my early 80's epiphone LP into a Black Beuty. It fits. It does get in the way, but for the studio its nice. I dont really use it on stage cause i would eventually lose a finger getting tied up between the middle pickup and the strings Im Surprised the few times i have used it on stage i havent hurt myself. Besides im a fender/ibanez/schecter/gretsch/anything but a gibson electric type of guy anyway. please don't throw anything heavy at me for saying that! I will try to put up some pics.

    Jigs

    the term "jigs" is kinda hazy to me. I think i know what they are supposed to do, but, i guess i need to see an example. Can someone explain them to me and/or show me a pic or something? prolly a stupid question sorry.
  13. thanx....the search gave me many post.
  14. well free always gives me the desire to try any wood.
  15. i might be interested in the boss chorus. BJPUC@yahoo.com
  16. well i cut the cedar and it looks like its gonna work for a at least a top. I hope anyway. three cheers for trying anyway! and the oak i think might be made into some cutting blocks for my kitchen and so forth I think i might be getting some catalpa (poplar?) any ideas for that?
  17. i guess that it would be eastern, since i got it off a farm close to my house
  18. Im located between Cincy Ohio, and Louisville KY. ITs red cedar........at least it smells good.
  19. i recently got a stump of Oak and two of cedar, now the cedar prolly wont be used for a guitar, but the oak is beutiful. it is about a foot and a half in diameter and 2 feet tall....good looking figure,,,, how would you cut it? into flat blanks? tall boards...i just dont want to waste the wood...if i cant make a guitar, maybe i can start a display cabinet with the wood to show off my other guitars etc... any opinions would be awesome! thanx again doc for the pickup info..
  20. thanx so much!!! i will let you know! you rock doc!
  21. i remember it having 4 lug type thingys on the base. but i dont know what to tap into!
