So mineral oil will do the trick? I forgot to mention that he has some of that also.

I got to cleaning one of my guitars, one with a rosewood board, the other night, and I found that my dad had some linseed oil laying around. Suffice to say that it looks beautiful and plays very smoothly now!
Now, I need to clean my guitar the has a maple board. It's an old RG550, and I think it's supposed to have a finish on the neck and board, but it looks to be sanded off, except maybe a thin line along the edges of each fret. My question is, is linseed oil appropriate for a maple board also? And if it is, will anything goofy happen because of the small amounts of finish remaining?
Thanks guys.

Congratulations! That's awesome Jeremy.
Those look amazing too, and even with the transparent ones the Black one is my favorite.

It's made of agathis because it was an LTD F-150, one of the really low end ones

What kind of sound will a Laney get? I did see that they were quite reasonable on the bay, but I don't know if they have as much gain as I would want, or the tone.

is that the SL-3 then?
I always liked how soloists looked, but i prefer the extra pointy-ness that the RG has.

Here's one, Matt

The title track is another one of my faves - its pretty much an almost 10 minute long, endless barrage of notes flying at you, but it sounds sooooo sweet. 80's like nobody's business, but sweet.

Altitudes is one of my favorite songs. That man could really write, and he could play some too.

I only use Dimarzio Clip Lock Straps, and quite a few other people here do as well.

As he said before, there really should be no problem. You might want to look at locking tuners to go with your setup, I have heard good things about carvins with the same stuff (Wilkinson, Graphtech nut, and Locking Tuners - I can't remember what brand carvin uses but you could look on their site to see). I can remember some people who used floyds with locking tuners and graphtechs and their complaint was that the nut wore too fast, though it stayed in tune very well.

That's looking real nice! I have a GSA20 - cheap guitar but the same contour on the top, thick sides like yours but no back contour. I love the feel of that guitar.
-
Setch, I don't even like Les Pauls - I am almost always more drawn to the bright 80's paint jobs on superstrats, but that Les Paul really is one of the most beautiful instruments that I have ever seen. It seems very understated, not really standing out but the way it reflects and looks soooo smooth and clean really makes me love it.

He already did, for the Montreal Show on April 1st
Are you loosing your edge Kevan?

pickups: a tom anderson 7-string single coil in the neck that i scored used for $10, and a dimarzio humbucker at the bridge -- probably a Tone Zone 7, depending on what i have lying around.
bridge: Lo Pro Edge 7 trem.
electronics: one of my rediculous 24-pole superswitch coil cut schemes that has a push/pull pot to switch the guitar into a single coil mode. i'll have to simplify things with only two pickups.

Try putting them up on www.photobucket.com or somewhere besides geocities so that we can see them all the time...
-
You can buy that guitar new for $125 less than you are asking for yours...you will have to lower your price a lot if you want any chance at all of selling it.

I love the look of the first one with the small lower horn, and it would be my first choice. I messed around with that picture and came up with this, I only changed the top horn - it lines up with the curve on the bottom one, and it also is a little different on the end, more like the bottom one. I kinda like this:

Great Work, though. I personally think it's awesome how you are looking at it and not getting upset and tossing the whole thing (though I am sure you were less than pleased when it happened!).
-
Wow...I was scared at what we could be getting into in this thread...
-
I'm here because I'm addicted and can't stop coming back...

Is there a reason why you really want to make one? It would be harder to make a copy of an Edge/ Lo pro because the baseplate isn't flat, it's like a wedge. If you are just looking to get a Lo pro cheaper it would be much easier to get off the bay.

I think that my brother will want to get this, he broke the nut on his jackson and this one is all the same dimensions - I will talk to him about it and contact you through email.

It's a snickers commercial, and I want to bust it out for some friends. I can distinguish single note lines reasonably well but I'm garbage when it comes to chords, so does anyone wanna help? Here's a page with the video on it, it's the last one on the page and i grabbed google's cache of the page in case they change it.
