what price would you say really expensive is for a top

so should i use 1/2" veneer then

ta for that

I have a question on this too.

i think that PRS use a maple cap and was wondering how hey get it to fit all of the contours of the body front.

Do they heat it and put it on or do they get a thicker top on it and then contour it?

you can hook them up to lights and stuff and use it as a dimmer switch n stuff.

random and usless fact

powertabs there

modding a Squire is a cool idea, they are cheap and mistakes dont matter to much and you can make it sound loads better.

get some of the Dimarzio EVH pickups. they sound quite cool.

i have this idea, dunno if it will work, cover the logo with a clear mouldable silicon,

its silicon something. (they use is to make moulds of ears for hearing aids.) then paint the headstock and pul off the silicon leaving the logo perfect.

just an idea though

he says he will sell them for like £600

if i were to do that hw long would you reackon it would take to get flexible

is that a little 59 in your tele

i just use industrial velcro and velcro mine on. much easier than drilling big holes in your guitar

roland make the midi pads, but they cost alot.matt uses his midi cable i think. i dont think you can get wireless midi

bellamy has that in his guitar aswell,

for the lovly umber crunching midi pad it will cost you £500

you could try the kent armstrong motherbucker, thats got a higher out put than the EMGs and distorts anything, good for muse, not to sure about the darkness, might work

after i finish school and get a prs, im gonna make a guitar with the 81 and 85 and an afterburner, i would buy some now but i can only put mini humbuckers in my tele

you could always attach a microwave magnet to the pickup, youll have really powerful pickups, acctully i might try that

basically after looking at matt bellamy's guitars and seeing that he has all the crazy ZVex pedals inside i went to the ZVex website. the guy who makes all the pedals is a seriouslly intelligent guy and has some very cool ideas. my favorites are probablly the three "Probe" pedals he's made

basic idea is to have a big copper plate on the front that is a theremin style aerial (theremins are instruments that are played by moving your hand closer to an aerial, you dont actually have to touch it) and to use this copper pad instead of, say, the foot pedal on a wah.

what i was wondering is if anybody (im looking to ansil here lol) has an easilly designable circuit that could be used as a theremin style volume control

like i said its not strictlly guitar related (unless you godown the mat bellamy route of having the ZVex Wah Probe built into one of your guitars (check the black manson, the copper plate around the lower horn is what im talking about)

many thanks anybody who can help

Inside Matt Bellamy's guitars are unbeleivable, have you tried the fuzz factory yet

zach is incready kind and always replies to posts imediatly, hes one cool guy.

look about of the internet. zvex did a volume probe but discontinued it, but it might be on ebay

hi im not sure if this is in the right place to ask but im looking for a new distorsion pedal.

I need a good quality yet not to expensive one.  Around the region of £50-£70 (srry im english ) and i want it to give out good powerful sounds.  Im aiming for a kind of "The Darkness" distorsion sound.  I think that would sound perfect.

Ive had a look around and ive been interested in the Boss MT-2 Metal Zone and the Danelectro Paisley Black Liquid Metal.

By the way id like to point out here thaT im NOT a metal freak.  I play all types of music from classical (mainly on my piano ), to blues, to new age.  I just need a modern distorsion sound like the sounds of the darkness or muse etc...

Also im playin on a US Tele through a marshall 100W amp.

Thanks for your help and if this is in the wrong place feel free to swear at me and delete it.

have you read the review in total guitar

IMO i would o for the danelectro black paisly distortionlike you said youd thought of, it has a added octaver done by switch and would be the way to go to get thick sounds like the darkness or with the octave for muse stuff

the other option would be a valve pedal,unless you have a valve amp already

danelectro black paisly distortion, it has a added octaver

I don't think it's that much harder to build one, so it's really up to you.

Now, constantly -playing- one and keeping it in tune is another story

But if that's what you want, go ahead and build it. If you screw it up, I figure you would have screwed up a TOM guitar too. So what the hey, might as well build what you want.

It's a lot of trouble, money, and effort to build a guitar, I only build ones that freakin' rock my world, nothing less will do. It's a lot of effort involved, so why not go for broke and build -exactly- what will drive you insane with happiness?

That's the way I look at it anyway.

you could use the speedloader if you wanna stay in tune
