    Well he's making a les paul for Hetfield now apparently,may have that headstock.probably make it's appearance whenever the new tour starts off
  2. deathcorip
    don't think the headstock works as a symmetrical design with the rr v style body,but i like the body

    the thing in plastic makes me think tasty,can i have it? Guitar is sweet,and i'm generally a hater of gold hardware.woukd only like it more if the middle pickgurad layer was of white like the pickups and knobs

    solid colour....only seen one KL explorer in solid colour,it was sexy but natural is best

    les pauls can have the channel routed before the top is put on or you can drill through from the neck pickup cavity and run it same way as pickup wires. explorer i think have a channel routed in the body under the pick guard up about as close as possible to control cavity then drilled through. i think in soome dime style guitars i've seen long back plates up the lower horn.others have tops like les paul. suprised they were the guitars you questioned,only one that ever puzzled me was when V's had the input on the upper wing.

    i've one,an explorer,the old exp style,plays really nice,above some ltds,below others,pick ups do need changing though. my friend got one from germany before too,but i don't think they're sold outside japan anymore.
  7. deathcorip
    love explorers,thats really nice,i just hate the switch there,prefer it down by rest of controls.
  8. deathcorip
    so tempts me to do the same to my one,but only got it week ago so i'll probably wait with the gloss back for while,really nice though.

    looks like an esp from the control layout,shape and where inlay seems to have been removed from 12th fret.

    batteries last forever in actives providing you remeber to plug it out when not using,my uncles has lasted 5 years in his warlock.he put a little switch on though to turn it off to make sure

    thanks,will trybthat bnext time i take it off. yeah i've an explorer with an aluminium diamond plate but its the 5 ridge type rather than one ridge.
  12. deathcorip
    while referring to diamond plate how could i make mine much shinier? its aluminium.

    now to get out my ruler and convert inches to milllimeters,my guitars are a really mess of lines,if you want to check a measurement you've to first figure out what i used to measure it.
  14. deathcorip
    i'm just curious as to whether there are different width than a standard nech and how much wider at both the nut and 24th or whatever fret. thanks if you've any info on this
  15. deathcorip
    i've built two guitars out of plywood,both really just experimental.the only problem i ever had was with my warlock because you have to use two 3/4" an one 1/4" pieces with the 1/4" in the middle i glued they layers together and sanded down prperly but cause it was from two different sheets the 1/4" dried ot and shrunk a bit so there's now this small indent around the middle of ll the sides. i also have an explorer built of a mahogany plywood and it works very well.
  16. deathcorip
    ok from bottom point fin to the top back point its 28" t measuring arond the curve just straight from the top back point to the bottom back point its 17 1/2". hope that helps,explorers are brilliant guitars i've two,one i built and one i bought.heavy fu ckers but nice to play and balance and i've plans to build 2or 3 more.
  17. deathcorip
    basically i need a template for it or some one to give me a measurement of each angle and the length of both the inside and outside of the v roughly.
  18. deathcorip
    Thanks. its sort of hard to find any good wood round where i am so i'm sorted.
  19. deathcorip
    wondering is it ok to use it? i have a piece big enough to make to necks and fingerboards. if not what would you suggest to use with a mahogany neck for the fingerboard?
