  1. it just needs cosmetic work....it's a great sounding guitar, it doesn't go out of tune, it sounds great, but it just bothers me that it has been broken....i know it has a flaw and it drives me nuts...kinda like if you bought a dodge viper and it had a dent in it...the dent doesn't change the performance, but it sure does drive you nuts! i actually want to get ahold of this "michael the luthier" guy(he left no last name) and see what he would charge to put a whole new neck on it. jarrid
  2. ok call me stupid for even trying....but here goes. in 1987 my father had a guitar custom built by a luthier in tucson arizona who went by "michael the luthier". he spent 2500 dollars having the guitar built, and it is a very nice guitar, but when my dad sent it to me as a gift 2 years ago, ups broke the head off of it!! anyway, i glued it and played it for a couple years, and now i finally have the money to have it fixed properly....well anyway i really would like to get ahold of this guy(michael the luthier) so if there is anyone in the tucson area that knows him or of him that could help me find him please let me know! jarrid
  3. Drak, Where do I get the stains you mentioned?
  4. i have a boss digital wah that i really like...has several different wah's built in and you can also save 3 wah sounds in it so it's kind of like a multi-effect wah?
  5. i love that finish...can you make a mandolin out of maple? i'm assuming so, but do you think this paintjob would look good on it?
  6. Sweet guitar! Man...I wish I lived near you whenever you get it finished so that I could hear how it sounded and see it in person....haha I talk about it like it's a legend;) lol but yeah very nice! btw, what does POS mean?
  7. I don't draw....but that's because I suck lol. Guess I'll need to figure out how to draw some guitar stuff so that I can build my own, huh? otgordin: NICE! Wish I could be that lucky...lol
  8. I forgot to mention one V.I.P. that I LOVE to cover....ALICE COOPER! haha
  9. and how much would those cost to get?
  10. Well I'm a blues fanatic, so when it comes to covers, I generally just play some SRV or B.B. King or Clapton, but sometimes I'm in the mood for a little more aggressive stuff so I'll play Rhoads or Wylde...just depends on my mood. I play mostly originals, but I like to be able to have a solid repetoire of cover songs as well. Not sure if that is what your asking, but if not, then I play either a Fender american strat or an alvarez acoustic or a custom built V, and I play through a Peavey Transfex Pro 212, but I'm looking for something else at the moment because I'm not liking this digital thing very much...a little too confusing to figure out I guess, considering it comes with 2 operators manuals, each well over 100 pages...lol;)
  11. wow good job! i really like how it looks...although my opinion doesn't mean much since i've not completed either one of my guitars i'm rebuilding yet, let alone even STARTED building one from scratch;) but i think it looks really good, does it sound good?
  12. What shop tools would I need to be able to start a shop to work on guitars? I mean as basic as possible, the very bare essentials/necessities. I want to build a guitar from scratch.
  13. I refuse to vote....NO STEVIE!!!!
  14. I am a complete moron when it comes to this stuff, so I can't give you any advice on it, but have you went through the archives and stuff to see if there is a tutorial on it?
  15. haha aight...I'll take some more pics maybe even tomorrow? Or the next day? Then I'll post them on here and see where we stand then! Thanks:) Jarrid
