  1. I voted for WOMD, even though he pretty far in front anyway. No offence to the other guys, your guitars rocked and I would kill a small child to own one (or to posess the skills required to make one of such quality), but the WOMD is pretty crazy.
  2. Does anybody know if there are any similar Guitar Shows coming up in Adelaide inthe near future?
  3. Cool. Do you know any guys on ebay that sell Ibanez stuff for better prices then?
  4. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this seller. He has a lot of good gear, and good feedback, just wondering if anyone has had any negative experiences with him. http://stores.ebay.com.au/Guitar-Parts-Unlimited
  5. I dunno, I kind of like the idea of a trem arm...Then you can do dive bombs. ← Yeah, dive bombs on a bass. If you get it to work, record a soundclip of it, it would be cool.
  6. [url="http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bridges,_tailpieces/Electric_guitar_tremolos/1/Floyd_Rose_Locking_Tremolo_and_Parts.html"]http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bridges,_tailp..._and_Parts.html[/url] ^ You've probably already mentioned this, but as I'm rather n00bish as far as Floyds go, could someone tell me the routing dimensions to fit in one of these Schaller Floyd Rose Locking Tremolos. Thanks. EDIT: Never mind, i found it on warmoth.
  7. Sounds ejaculation-worthy, but the more I think about it the more I think I'd rather set myself a reasonable challenge rather than an impossible one, considering it'll be my first project guitar I actually make parts for. So I've all but settled on a JEM and hopefully one of my buds at school will paint a cool design on it. Mind you, if I had, or ever end up having the skills, the 6/12 RG would be soooooooooo cool!
  8. Cool. After some thinking, I think I'm finally set on an RG copy.
  9. Thanks. So it's basically for jumping from 12 to 6 strings quickly and vice versa. Cool. Lets not forget that they look pimp. (Do kids still say pimp these days? lol. By pimp, I mean awesome.)
  10. Cheers mate. It's awesome that people help you out here unlike some forums. Man, I really don't know what to do. I gotta make a guitar for a school project next year, and I've been thinking of making about 438765432960543 different guitars. A JEM, an RG, an SG, a doubleneck RG, and about 50 different other makes of guitars. There's too many damn options. I really wanna do a JEM/RG but, well, it's not that I don't know if I can install a floyd, it's just I don't know If I'll have a budget to make a GOOD JEM/RG. Anyone else ever get stuck in a rut like this?
  11. http://images.misupply.com/products/origin.../128805x600.jpg I'm curious, what's so special/different about a double neck than a normal guitar? I notice many doublenecks (like the one posted above) have 12 strings at the top and 6 strings at the bottom, so I'm wondering, how whould you use a doubleneck in a song, and if anyone can give me the names of anysongs with doublenecks to check out please do. I've only just started thinking about doublenecks as a project possibility after seeing Scott Rosenbergers thread. If I attempted a doubleneck, it probably would not be as complicated as that one, but, I dunno, meh, early days yet.
  12. don't worry dude, I know what you mean. Stew, thanks for your kind words. Man, the more I see that green baby and the stew craft, the more tempted I am to make another guitar. I guess thats what it's all about, sharing your ideas, masterpieces, fortunes and misfourtunes with eacother. All the guitars look 'fully sik m8' (apparently, that means they all kick ass ). I'm digging that LP as well
  13. Wow, I can't wait to see this baby finished. Good luck.
  14. Thanks mate, unfourtunately due to time and money restrictions, my next guitar project won't be underway until next year. I can negotiate with my music teacher, so I'll be doing it as a school project. I'm thinking of making my own body, buying a 24 fret neck, and finishing the body with a rich red varnish. But meh, thats ages away yet. I basically want to make as many good guitars as I can before I have to pay for things like cars, rent, bills etc.
  15. Thanks. I'm suprised to have over one vote! I kinda feel unworthy against some of the guitars in here! Maidens and the Stew Craft especially.
  16. Hey guys, I would have just edited this into my entry post, however the edit function has been disabled! So heres my update, hopefully youz don't mind. I wired up an amber LED under the pickguard which sprays a 'halo of light' around the pickup. A pure gimmick, but it does look sexy as. This horrible picture does not do it justice! http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a309/neocon58/P1030654.jpg If the mods want the edit this into my post, they can feel free. Their choice. Andrew
  17. I hooked up an amber LED under the pickguard, it's placed so it basically puts a glowing amber ring arond the pickup, like a halo. Just a gimmick but it looks pretty cool.
