Ok, spent an hour giving it a good allover with some 0000 and car wax, is there something im missing? Starting to look nice and mattish, but there's some very fine scratches now, how do I get rid of that? I've been scrubbing it along the grain (vertically)... that's the correct way, yes?

Looking to swap out the boring bog stock 7 piece Fender body I have with something with a little more character... What have you guys got? I don't mind how old it is, how many dings, dents, cracks etc Alternatively, if someone can build me one too...shoot me a pm I'm in Sydney, Australia

Has any got any information on sanding down a standard Fender poly finish to a satin like nitro-esque looking finish? I've found this before; http://www.nymphusa.com/tele/relic_strat_std_e1.asp Bit hesitant, is he talking about 2400grit-3200grit wet/n/dry papers? I really hate the high-gloss finish on my MIM tele

Those reflector knobs look awesome! Where did you get them? Are they split shaft only?

Noice, has a cool retro vibe happening...

It's a coiltapped HS2

It's for sale already? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...3781471202&rd=1 Why are you selling it as a Washburn if you built it yourself?

Looks like a lobster claw! Very nice.

Looks great, the low e is too far off the headstock though, can you install a string tree or something to fix it?

Hmm, im not sure cutting out the cavities from the back like that was such a good idea, because the pickups arent really "touching the wood" and wouldn't sustain/resonate very well. I suppose it will have the same sort of thin jangly sort of strat sound... your guitar body is pretty much a front to back strat now that i think about it. Also are you using a tremolo bridge as a hardtail?!

Nah, they are nice people, i've ordered about $150 worth of stuff from them every now and again. That LP body looks horrible though.

Oooh, i like that left horn, looks alot like the one on my Schecter

How does the Tone Zone sound? I remember reading it doesnt work well in Mahongany, but better in Basswood. I love that fingerboard! Big fan of single inlays.

Hi, Just wondering will it be possible to paint over a guitar that has been finished in tung oil? How can I go about preparing it for paint? It has about 4 rubbed/sanded on coats of tung oil. Thanks.
