First of all, happy holidays everyone.
With the new year coming im starting a new project (even if the first one still not finished, LOL).
Im gonna convert a rg body and build a neck to make a jem inspired from the 777 DY (desert yellow).
i scored a beat up rg body and a birdseye pyramid fretboard and cosmo black tuner and a lopro copy in cosmo black.
still need some part but will buy when times come.
Started today by doing the monkey grip and jack output. :
Ive followed the excellent tutorial made by brian, the only difference is i used fortsner bit instead of hole saw or wood bit and was able to make the cut in one pass, no need to turn around the body at midpoint and the hole are dead straight. Also made the output jack with the fortsner bit and press drill, i need to make the cavity and plug the old jack hole.
Check out my album for more photo, more to come in the next days. ( friends photobucket password is swirls)
