Bridge Options For Tele W/ B5 Bigsby?
JoryNad replied to jay5's topic in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat
no, and i can't get started this weekend, going to calgary. but i did recieve my neck. ill pot picks of my neck, tail piece, pickups and template when i get home hopefully. the neck is so killer. it has the airline fell but yet is different, im hoping it will distiguish my airline from the "jack white guitar". -
Bridge Options For Tele W/ B5 Bigsby?
JoryNad replied to jay5's topic in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat
jay i can't really give any advice here, but nice bridge. hows the airline coming? i think my neck came in today so ill start with the body this weekend! -
yep, you can go to their web site, just search google. its all in japanese tho!
-
i can't start offically till i get my neck in, which it appears usps has lost! but i do have the template done and will be posting pictures soon.
-
no idea, use google it your best friend
-
k so many of you know about the eastwood airline re-issue, wel atlest jay and i know as we are building our own re-issues. but how many of you know of the Fujigen airline, its made by a japenesse company and if acctually seen it in a guitar shop in vancouver (off granville), unlike the eastwood which is order only. well here some pics to inspire you jay and other who care.
-
ikke how wrong you were, it is wood
-
dude thats awsome, aside from the handle its sweet. looks like you were trying to get your guitar to look like an airline ala Jack white
-
thanks for the tip, i will have to decide if it is absolutly neccesary that i have my jack on the top, thanks tho
-
haha very well i shall use correct spelling, and to my best effort, grammar. I have already been scolded for punctuation, what is up with you guys give a man a break! yea sorry wes if i offended you i meant that what you suggested was not what i was looking for, i over reacted and i am sorry
-
u assume correctly oh and wes your wrong i meant like an sg not a strat but thanks anyways
-
k so iv i want my output jack on the front of the guitar, ie. the top how would i do this on a solid body one piece??
-
yea the eastwoods were made in korea, south id imagine , but yea they're good gutiars but i would never pay $700 fro the airline reissue when the original fiberglass one is only $300 more (not that they're worth 1000). i remember the good ole days, last summer when those guitars were going for like $400 (almost got one!) but the reissues won't sound anything like the original (diff pickups, pots etc.) if you have any questions you should really e-mail mike robinson, his e-mails on the myrareguitars.com site, he'll most likely respond within 5 mins (hes always online as his buisness relies on it)
-
fine! i. will. use. more. punctuation. in. my; posts!
-
eww on the gutiar but awsome amp
-
they're great little vintage guitars, but don't pay over $200, there known for excessive amount of coloured knobs
-
yea ur right about the stair step on the tailpiece, but i dunno it might be hard to cut off and still have it look good and not jagged and dull (unlike the tailpiece which is very very shiny) ps. lets rename this thread "the airline project thread" lol as we are just passiong ideas off and such
-
yea thats a hard part eh? i was lucky enough to find a neck that about the same only problem is ill have to refinish it and put the white veneer on the head stock, (it has black on it now)
-
hey no i havn't started on the body, well besides the template, caus im waiting for my neck to arrive and my taipiece so i can get scale and all that, o and i got the tailpiece from ebay, i can give you the guys user name if you want apparently he has tons, he said he would just sell me one if i didn't win the bid (i did tho), i got mine for $20.00 which is an excellent price for such a unique and critical item, oh have you solved the binding problem yet?
-
hey just updating you all, those of you that care, i just bought the tailpiece which i pretty sweet, the necks on its way, i got the pickups, all i need are some knobs, pots, wires, and a bridge. well heres the tailpiece.
-
thank you kind sir!
-
cheers!
-
k even tho im not at this step, how do i get an extremely high gloss on my body like a plastic gloss??? any suggestions
-
that looks about right to me, is that sold in stores or just online? oh and how did you cut ur body, what saw? scroll? jig? hand lol?? and what colour are you thinking EDIT: no pics of the body template yet jay, but as soon as i get them i will put them up
-
yes i am, i think its essential to the guitar, if you look at the www.myrareguitars.com airline re-issue, its lacking because it doesn't have that binding, its just addes to the contrast, or maybe im messed up lol. ideas have been: - going to Canadian Tire (hardware store in canada) and getting some vinyl binding used for flooring its perfect only problem is it doesn't come in white! so any one know how to colour vinyl? Or putting in regulay binding all around the body only twice as thick, so it would use two pieces or the material, have i lost you? but i am still searching, question to you Jay: what colour? the classic red and white (what im doin) or something else
