    a 25.5" scale neck with 21 frets would have a fretboard 17.919" long, 22frets would need an 18.344" fretboard

    work on the proportions you might end up with something too warlocky, but theres a reason why so many people like the shape: its in proportion

    ehhh, i gotta stop posting every friggin change i make. i deleted the post cuz now im doing a mix of the two. its more or less the big one but its skinny like the small one, giving it larger fins i wont update again till i can actually decide on something, lol

    well cad wont let you just print and tape the paper together so do i have to like....cuz the thing up into several viewports and print out each viewport individually?
  7. mailman
    How are you plotting the template so you can actually....well use it?
  8. mailman
    so why dont you make an explorer or a V and carve the metallica faces into it? Why, so the top can impale you through the rib cage?
  9. mailman
    No, everyone thinks you should cancel the idea altogether because it will be unplayable, uncomfortable, and unbalanced, but you go right ahead and build it... ← +1

    okay, then from the nut though i have to say, how is it possible to put a bridge 25" from the nut when the length of the neck is 25"? unless im completely missing something here......does "scale length 25" neck mean the length of the fretboard or from the nut to the bridge?
  11. mailman
    i know what "scale length" is, just not in the context which you are speaking
  12. mailman
    so do you want me to eyeball where i should put the bridge? or just randomly place it? lol
  13. mailman
    im talking about the distance where to route the floyd not how to set it up
  14. mailman
    what is the distance (on a 25" scale neck) from the end of the fretboard to the start of a floyd rose bridge and also the distance to the bridge pickup even rough numbers would be great sorry if i coulda used search....but i just cant find anything due to personal incompetance
  15. mailman
    i'm worried about that and thats why I had to make the HS bigger in the first place i'm sure a workable medium will be possible either way, its a locking nut so even if they touch its not a HUGE problem.....but still.. also, in regards to the overall size of the thing......does it look at least as big as a jackson KKV? becausue thats the size i was aiming for when i started this
  16. mailman
    its just so that i know for sure everything looks proportionate in the template
  17. mailman
    hah, alright, stickin with the original! i got time to tweak though, Doug doesnt have time to start on this 'till November oh yeah, where can i get the measurements for how far the bridge should be frome the nut, and where the bridge pup should be?

    doug's without a doubt seeing his new custom just gives me even more excitement before he starts on my V i am just overfilled with joy, the guitars this guy makes are pure gold
  19. mailman
    You're a machine, dude.
  20. mailman
    which one would you guys go with?
  21. mailman
    ...exactly
  22. mailman
    you get your CAD stuff from that site? cuz yeah, all their stuffs out of scale
  23. mailman
    a very sexual guitar
  24. mailman
    You're the first person to say that. I don't quite see the predator mix other than the carve in the headstock I think I got the idea however, from the Peavey VT series but I forget if the chicken or the egg came first at this point
  25. mailman
    i think the top of the guitar is huge looks very uncomfortable
