Hi, i havent been in the forums for a while and would like to start a new guitar project. A RELIC! I need a sunburst strat body that is full sized, no thin squiers. I need a single ply pickguard, or just the whole electronics set from a squier, Kluson style tuners, anything and everthing, all i have right now is neck and knobs. let me know if you have anything by posting here and sending me a email at ziki88REMOVE@gmail.com

2 words, sa-weet

thats kind of a neat idea. will the tremol-no be accessible with a back plate on?
-
very nice. if the horns were a bit softer i would love it keep up the good work and how bout you use some black diamond black strings, they're cool and unique and not many people have them
-
i like your bookbag strap, neat idea, might have to do that sometime
-
it doesnt have a seperate fretboard, the neck is maple and the truss rod was put in through the back with a skunk stripe
-
help?
-
I want to replace this truss rod in a bass guitar for less than $10 dollars (excluding the price of the truss rod). The neck has a skunk stripe. What would be the easiest way? Routering it out? Using heat in some way? I want to do this for a guitar in school and it would be very educational for me.
-
i think you should start working on a trademark headstock. those rectangular ones just dont fit the beautiful bodies. anyone else agree?

i wired everything up for my seymour duncan active livewire pickups but it's not working. maybe i didnt wire the output jack up right. the one in the diagram isnt very useful http://www.seymourduncan.com/website/suppo...ingle_coils.jpg ... also, it might be my capacitor... i ordered a .20 and i think it can be used... ugh im so lost, and i really want to play this guitar
-
oh yeah, just a update...the guitar is done, or shall i say was. i assembled it and noticed the nut was off a little, so i ordered a graph tech nut which will be here tommorrow, and also then neck needed a shim and i forgot to solder a wire in the electronics, so...after all this, ill take pictures and show you the pimpage...with a little wear..
-
now all you need is the headstock decal and some wear! or... you could do what he did http://www.rhsdesign.com/fender51/ECblackieneck.htm

no, its in the pickguard, you can barely see it.

first, isnt that stuff sticky? and hard to actually jam... second, isnt it expensive? sounds interesting though -
Just A Hello To Start With
ZiKi replied to gitCAD's topic in Site Feedback, Issue Reporting and Test area
welcome, and btw, nice site -
first off, i go to a performing arts school, ya know, arts as in dance, theater, tv, instrumental music, vocal... i was wondering if anyone had a working bass neck that i could donate to the music department. we have a working bass but the neck has a broken truss rod and its not worth buying a new neck. Thanks in advance, and sorry if this sounds too..greedy
-
looks like a nice deal. i like that body contour but not in favor of the headstock. i would actually put a rickenbacker headstock on my dream guitar, something about it looks cool. cheers and good luck
-
the second picture kinda looks like a lion, rawr!

http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=10924 look around the forum, you'll find people are doing the same thing
-
great job, soon you'll be making guitars featured in magazines left and right. keep it up.
-
Well, the coat is more yellow than orange, the lighting kinda made it look orange. "wait of romse one to confirm this tho" huh? and, i dont have enough coats of paint to do the finish on there, and its crap quality too, thats why im gonna go over it with lacquer, besides, itll leave a harder, shinier(sp) finish i think.
-
yeah, the headstock isnt even correct, the fender headstocks have balls at the ends, this just curves....LOL
-
thats very interesting, i wouldnt have guessed it was a strat style in its previous life. where did you get the neck? is it original or did you buy it somewhere. and are those wearmarks on the frets real or did you make them for that "relic" effect
-
thanks for the help! so, just to make sure. i do a final 600 grit sand on my paint coat, then put tons of coats of lacquer on. then i sand with 600 for a cloudy white and work up to a 2000 grit, till the lacquer is semi-reflective. then apply finesse-it and im set! right?
-
i got some finesse-it. its a polishing compound i guess. http://cms.3m.com/cms/GB/en/0-165/cRFlrFS/view.jhtml http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...indpost&p=59011
