yo Alex

how has the tru oil been

is it getting scratches in it already?

and about your low action

try filing your nut even lower

but don't file too low or it will break your nut

just keep researching you'll find something real good real soon if you persist

I like the sound of the last one too

your a really good player

you guys are awesome

lovecraft I don't mind long boring explanations as long as their informative I learned alot

and thanx wes I didn't really expect someone to put sound clips on

let the world rock on

he's my moms friend and will do me a couple of favors

he doen't run a huge business but still has all the contacts so if I want a special peice of wood he can order it

I want my mommy

people please still post

watch the naked monkey dance

shut up and go away didn't kevan tell you

if you if you don't have anything to say donnot say anything at all

does the jackson guitar site say how long the horns are or how thick it is at the edge and how thick it is at the center for a carved top

point taken

but no more negativety

everybody but litchfield please keep posting and ignore his stubbornity to let stuff go

please if you are selling something take 15 minutes max out of your day and please take the measurements and send them to Brian he will put them in the download section

take enough measurements and your able to access the download section

and since you sent in the measurements everyone else has access to them

can't you see everyone wins

rock on

I don't know I live about an hour and a half from there so if I went there it would be for

buying masses and masses of wood (gas is so friggin expensive)

why don't you call them and they might check and make you only pay shipping

what do you have to lose

P.S. notice I didn't use any smilies

P.S.S. nevermind

k thanx

yea

my mom knows this guy who is a great friend of hers and he told her he sold "construction materials"

well turns out he only sells specialty hardwoods and exotic woods so I can get a discount

oh yea score one for a mr. camcool party yea!!

alright I'm busted didn't get canned porsay it's just getting colder and leaves are falling so I moved into the business of raking leaves and used a resume to get hired

didn't you know I'm filthy rich

make sure to let everyone know how it works with the carved top

rock on

is there a difference in the sound tonal wise

by the way dr. Jabsco and Lovecraft thanx for the replies

much appreciated

Jabsco that is a good site if you are fluent in the schematic language

but I should probably learn if I am going to wire guitars

rock on

thnx mr.mod

your my hero

the pic says it all

curly bubinga

that would make one heck of a carved top

how many bpf is needed for an electric guitar body while buying lumber

how many:

for a carved top

for a threepeice laminate neck-through neck

basswood is a good wood for a body

but

It may not be the best for a neck because of how soft it is

The neck would have a tendency to bend

of couse, because it is softer, it is easier to work with

It is cheaper because it is one of the softest hardwoods

read a book on woods your local library should have one

I bought a book full of hardwoods that says their woodworking qualities

hardness, price, toxity, power tools or hand saws, porous or non porous, stability

these are all things to pay attention to when buying wood for making a guitar

I would buy one, the book has sections on how to build 3 different guitars

a carved top guitar which came in handy to me 'cause i plan on having a carved top

plus

There is a section on how to build a neck-through guitar which was some info I couldn't find anywhere else because I plan to build a neck-through guitar and was having trouble finding info

I would also suggest while your at the bookstore pick-up (no pun intended) Larry Robinson's book "The Art Of Inlay"

I bought both of them on Amazon just recently for a little over 30 bucks

Amazon's a great dealer I ordered free shipping because I spent over 20.00

so the package was supposed to come in 7-8 days and I got mine in 3 days

peace out

k thanx what are active pickups

litchfield I'll see u in the slam topic

I need a good wiring system

I am using Seymour Duncan JB for a bridge pickup and Seymour Duncan Full Shred for the neck pickup

I want a quiet guitar with no humming

I think I want lots of sustain ?

would these Schematics work for a balanced sound not too bright more on the warm side

pleez

k thanks

does it sand flat good

Hey has anyone used the Craftsman 3-D sander

I thought it looked like a nifty tool for sanding the back of the neck

Plus it can sand flat surfaces too so I'm thinking of buying it to replace my junky palm sander

The only problem with it that I see is you would have to buy lots of the special sand paper

Craftsman 3-D sander

QVC has some cheap craftsman tools

your so funny

shut the he^^ up I can pay any price u list I make 80 bucks a week mowin lawns 4 lawns for 20 bucks each dumba$$
