    The low E and the high E are supposed to be about 1/8 from the edge of the fretboard to keep them from falling off.

    Welcome Jeff I am glad you decided to sign up. There is a lot of giving and taking of info on here. There is nothing that I know that these guys on here don't know so I gave back by donating.

    Electronics mostly I don't have the books in front of me right now. Stuff that changed since 86 or whenever the original was dated.

    Thanks guys because I was considering building electric upright bass as close to 40'' scale length without having to buy upright strings. I just wanted to experiment with that.
  11. vikingblood
    Hey now your saying that like it's a bad thing lol. I am a heathen. Anyways leave the guitar alone the value will only go up.
  12. vikingblood
    What is the max scale length I can use for electric bass strings?
  13. vikingblood

    Hey guys some one came to me and wanted a guitar repaired I said I'd give it a try since I don't have acoustic guitar experience. It just needs a bone saddle and bridge pins. I need help what is the best way to install and shape a saddle? Should I use my radius gauge and copy the neck radius to the saddle?

    Hey guys I have a collection of guitar building books that I'm selling for cheap. If anyone is interested contact me. I can have pics for you. The more you by the lower I can go.

    Yeah it is a bolt on neck so it can be shimmed to the proper angle. Depends on what Iceman wants to do with it.

    Fender style hardtails or tom's are always a good choice but they are the most common.
  20. vikingblood
    SG by far then Les Paul and Warlock

    You misunderstood me I think I want to build it. I didn't build that, that ain't me I thought that upright would be cool to learn to play upright on.
  22. vikingblood
    Hey guys what do you think of this homemade upright bass? Think it's worth building to learn on? People on youtube seem to like it. But I thought I'd ask you guys though. http://www.ehhs.cmich.edu/~dhavlena/bass3.jpg http://www.ehhs.cmich.edu/~dhavlena/db2.jpg http://www.ehhs.cmich.edu/~dhavlena/db.htm http://www.ehhs.cmich.edu/~dhavlena/db.gif

    Hi, I have a fixer upper B.C. Rich Platinum series guitar I was thinking of selling. It is either an Assassin or more likely an ST. The finish is Black with yellow crackle. I have a tremolo with it but it is in rough shape. I also have pickups to go with it they are not Emgs but they will do. The tuners are included. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee250/u...ebaypics028.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee250/u...ebaypics027.jpg

    What kind of tremolo is this? It came with my B.C. Rich fixer upper and I would like a new trem. It looks like a Floyd but it doesn't say Floyd on it. The guitar can be seen in my restoration post. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee250/u...ebaypics032.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee250/u...ebaypics031.jpg
