    only if they're the bits of wood you intended to shear off...

    +1 to that. my niece sent me a text asking me if i had any "spare" guitars!!! *** does that mean? what is a "spare" guitar?

    sanding a finish off & starting again is character building - everyone should have to go thru it at least once in their building life. it make u appreciate it more when u get it right! my 1st guitar (sg too) my wife knocked it over within 1hr of me finishing it & getting it set up to play.... put a 6in pressure dent across the front of the body..... took me 10 years nearly to get round to refinishing it.... been on going for another 10 years now lol......

    yeah - that's my point exactly - i love your iceman, buuuuut...... i love all of the others too... everytime a new one gets submitted & i start drooling..... there isn't a single one of them this month that, finances allowing, i wouldn't like to own. i'm like a kid at a candy shop window with a pocket full of cash!! (unfortunately in real life i ain't got the pocket full of cash, lol)

    just wish i had the cash spare at the moment ( ) an' i'd happily take a set off you.... i'd love to give them a try maybe a bit later in the year..... saving for the family holiday to Florida (cost= !!!!)

    going off the info, i'd use a standard vintage strat template & increase the width of it by 11.3mm (string spacing=11.3mm, 1 extra string so it needs to be 11.3mm wider) and to be sure I'd route it on a piece of scrap to check for fit/operation before condemning a body blank to the Eternal Fires of Damnation. hope this helps

    it's not us that's got the accent - it's you lot... lol

    lol... these words should not belong in the same sentence but unfortunately it's true. If you haven't already done so check out Larry Robinson's inlaying videos - they're quite good & stop you making the usual beginners mistakes.

    This is the guy you need to contact..... NotYou you'll see from the pics he knows what he's doing...

    there's a guy I work with.... right handed, plays guitar left-handed but strung up right handed - if that makes sense!!! all of the guitars he's played over the years have been righty's flipped over.... his last one was a lefty that I adapted to be strung up right handed for him - now that f******d with my head but also gave me an insight into what he's put up with for many years.... he said he can't believe he never thought of it before I suggested it..... came about because he saw a lefty Peavey Predator for sale for £100 - he said it was a shame it was strung up wrong for him & I said... "but thats not a problem.... I can sort that easily for ya!"

    depends on whether the f/b overhangs the end of the neck or not - like 22 fret Fender Strat necks....
  15. supplebanana
    sounds good to me - or a front plate instead...
  16. supplebanana
    this is the biggest mistake you've made yet!!!! YOU'VE MADE IT THE WRONG WAY ROUND!!!!!! other than that... another cool build!! Bionic Dave's just changed his name maybe you need to too... "Explorer King"?
  17. supplebanana
    from reading all of your other posts i think that the main reason you're "scared" to do this yourself is that you payed $70 for your pre-fretted f/b - correct? also it may be beneficial for any potential offers if you say what size it is now AND what size you require it to be. other questions is the f/b bound, inlayed, (wood type?) etc are all considerations too. this just shows that Proper Planning & Preparation Prevents P*ss Poor Performance...... my personal opinion is that if you're scared to do this yourself - then should you really be attempting to build anything at all? my 2p's worth...
