  1. If you use coppertape to shield the cavities, , the bridge will be grounded....
  2. Hey Jeff, glad something good came out of this. I hope you'll build a kick ass tele. Honestly can't tell you if a thinline would be difficult though...
  3. Sounds like you want to do a burst.. check out the main site, there's a tutorial on bursting with cans. btw, how much did you get?
  4. I doubt it. I live in a country where fillers, paint, sanding sealer and stuff is almost impossible to get, but I can get dye in any paint store. Other than that, if you're building a guitar that costs a few hundred bucks, why would you even take the risk. Oh whatever. experiment en ruin finishes as much as you want.... Some people just don't want to learn.
  5. you're missing the point: why risk fading if you can buy the correct dye for the same money?
  6. Just make sure that you use the super glue in a moisture free area. Super glue takes the moisure really easily and gets hazy
  7. I can hear you. I'm tempted to order the Stew Mac filler, but it's so expensive....
  8. yes. Morben and Rhoads are right. Unfortunately in my country you can't buy no clear grain filler. I tried Drak's CA method and it works very well.
  9. damnit Perry, I took the time to edit my typo and you quoted me before I was finished. You really want to make me look bad, ehr? Anyway, I really hope Jeff amazes us. I really do.
  10. I think you just crossed the point of no return. I can't wait to see those guitars!
  11. We'd love to see the perfect guitars you already made, but to be honest, I think those guitars simply don't excist, or are sold without you taking photo's. Jeff, cut the crap and try to learn something from this. Step down from that ivory tower and be a little more reasonable. Right now you're making a fool out of yourself. However, I'll take back anything I said when I see pics of the perfect guitars you sold to your customers.
  12. Well thanks for the encouragement, but why the hell should I try it? I can buy dye in any color I want for $3.50. This dye has been tested and approved on wood and gives great results. Why would I risk using something else that obviously doesn't give the same results and has been reported to lose it's color? What is the point of using this stuff????? I just can't see no single advantage to regular dye.
  13. I buy dye for $3.50, put it in a jar and I can re-use it all the time. I can also put small batches in different jars. I don't understand what you're trying to say about making small batches. The whole point is that why would you risk a finish if tested and appropriate dye's can be bought DIRT cheap?
  14. I just don't understand why one would use this stuff. Dye from LMII is so freakin' cheap, why would you even take the risk?
  15. Nice John, But I recall seeing that bass before. You sure you haven't post it before? Sweet bass though
  16. Something else: Did you guys notice the question was from a new forum member who never came back or took the time to say thanks? Not meaning to hyjack the thread, but this is pissing me off big time and the sole reason I barely take the time to answer questions by people with post count 1.
  17. nice Hyunsu! I really like your flamed maple
  18. I missed this thread, Drak. I hate you!
  19. I was talking about the sides of the neck......
  20. very nice...... you did a great job. Your name sounds Dutch, or Belgian.. Am I close?
  21. I really love Booyakavski's work. That guy was a genius. Anyone else like his work?
  22. oh, In that case.. I think I know how to trill ......
  23. what if you replace the batteries? seriously..... enlighten me... but what the hell is a trill?
  24. because the neck is crooked. Draw a straight line on the treble side and you know what I mean. Either the strings will run off the fretboard in the middle or, they'll be too far from the edge at the nut and the end of the neck. However, since it's a bolt on, you could always build a new neck if this one doesn't work out for you. A tip for getting straight edges if you don't have a router: glue some sanding paper on a straight piece of wood and sand...sand sand.....
