    No I get the idea behind how they work, more than any thing I want to know how they play, have they been well tested when I think Bc Rich I think BRONSE and I run away as fast as I can but this new line looks tighter than most Plus its not just Bc rich thats useing this new bolt on idea
  12. !!METAL MATT!!
    well Ive seen these around for a bit and I cant seem to find much info on them other than they bolt up from under the pickup and they have no neck heel. Other than that I dont know much and I would like to know more
  13. !!METAL MATT!!
    I headin to the wood shop today!! Ive found a crack thats forming in the black walnut Im hopeing to see what I can do and start oiling the body as soon as I can
  14. !!METAL MATT!!
    HAHA HEY Im not dead!! just moved in to a new place by the lake and just got online again a while ago. ok so so close but so far im working two jobs now and finding time for guitars is rough but Im still doing what I can when I can. Ive done alot to the body and ive started the AANJ ive done a TON of sanding, all thats left is drilling a hold fo the Jack and than a string nut and mounting the neck than OIL FINISH one booo booo I made on this build that I just came to see was that Ive mounted my jig just off the center line so every thing is just a bit off to one side to the black walnut center if there was no walnut it would be fine oh well my erorr my guitar
  15. !!METAL MATT!!
    The pics suck http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2237.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2232.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2228.jpg and I did this for the quick connect http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2230.jpg
  16. !!METAL MATT!!
    Ok I got the neck Freted pics soon
  17. !!METAL MATT!!
    Well its not as heavy as I thought it would be but the weight is really helping with any neck diveing issus this guitar will sit perfect Im very very happy with this guitar now BUT this will (MAYBE) be my last purpleheart guitar unless I fine another killer figerd piece like my tube curl quilted slab I found at windsor but Ive NEVER seen any thing like that again
  18. !!METAL MATT!!
    Ok Ive goten a bit more work done and the tuneing peg holes http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2191.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2190.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d177/dea...ar/IMG_2189.jpg Oh and Ive changed the headstock design its much shorter, I believe it looks much nicer and flows more with the body
  19. !!METAL MATT!!
    well ive been playing a friends no name flying V that he got off ebay and the board is dead flat and for some reason my hands love how it feels so I'll give it a go
  20. !!METAL MATT!!
    ohhhhh ooooops
  21. !!METAL MATT!!
    Ok so Ive not had alot of time to work on the purpleheart guitar but Im starting to fall in love again where the wood lacks the design is really makeing up for it, so I have the jig ready for the electronics cavity and Ive started my jig for the headstock so that I can drill out the tuner holes dead on so once thats done the guitar is just about done other than alot of sanding I'll be freting soon aswel and I'll be doing a flat radius
  22. !!METAL MATT!!
    When I was working with jeremy there he had a hell of a time sometimes with is litle gill thing on his design but he only had a big buffer
  23. !!METAL MATT!!
    buffing the gills out is really going to suck
  24. !!METAL MATT!!
    Man wicked design combo
  25. !!METAL MATT!!
