  1. Where can I purchase an original Floyd Rose online. All I can find are the licensed ones.
  2. I purchased the Stew Mac Hot Rod with Fender style adjustment. How would I go about installing this with adjustment at the top? The instructions that came with it only show how to use bottom adjustment. Also on Stew Mac site it says that the Floyd Rose Bridge has a 14" string radius. Does this mean my fretboard needs a 14" radius too? In this case could I re-radius my 12" fretboard to 14" with a radiused sanding block or do I need to order a new one?
  3. So from the looks of it, I would have to use that plastic headstock, right?
  4. 1) How thick should I make my neck at the bottom where it bolts on the body? 2) Also How wide should the fret board be at the top and bottom? 3) At which point on a 24 fret fretboard should it stay the same width? 4) What is a good headstock thickness? Also if it matters for the neck width my neck plate is 50 mm wide. Thank you in advance and I need the info by 3:30.
  5. Which colors did you order because that's exactly what I'm looking for my guitar.
  6. Can I fret the fretboard before I glue it on to the neck? Also do I need a locking nut if I have Locking tuners?
  7. I'll take one! Thanks e-mail: blink182fan690@Hotmail.com
  8. I need a 25" scale rosewood 22 fret fret board. I can only find them with 24 frets. Could I saw off the last 2 frets without harming anything.
  9. If I have a 25" scale length does that mean the fretboard is 25" long or the whole neck is 25" long
  10. I had a chance to talk to my uncle who his helping me build this guitar and he knows someone who sells wood. I gave him a call and when he found out what I was doing and that I was my uncle's nephew he donated the wood to me. So I'm getting mahogany cut for neck and body blanks and a quilted maple top. Finally I can start on my PRS McCatrty with a see through green finish, a floyd rose and all gold hardware.
  11. I need help finding a mahogany body and neck blank that are bookmatched. I also need help finding a quilted maple top so I can do a carved top. I found all of the other parts but their is no wood available by me.
  12. I'm looking at using a Dremel that I have at my house to rout out the cavities in my first guitar. What do I need to buy? BTW, it is a Dremel Cordless Multipro 7700.
  13. I am going to begin building a guitar and want to double check exactly what I need. I am making it with an alder body with a tamo veneer, a birdseye maple neck, an ebony fretboard, a floyd rose tremolo, sperzel locking tuners, two Di Marzio Evolution humbuckers, clear pickguard and cavity covers and dunlop strap locks. I need to know what tools I will need at the minimum. I also need someone to check that I am buying the right supplies and that I am not missing anything. 19" x 14" x 1-3/4" Alder Guitar Body Blank from Warmoth 27" x 4" x 3/4" Birdseye Maple Guitar Neck Blank from Warmoth 25-1/2" Scale x 24 slots Ebony Fretboard from Warmoth Tamo Veneer from Constantines Wood Center 1 set of Fret Wire from Warmoth 1 GTR3 truss rod from Warmoth 1 TRN1 adjusting rod from Warmoth 1 Truss Rod Wrench sheets of plexiglass for pickguard and cavity covers 1 gold Floyd Rose Pro Tremolo from Musicians Friend Floyd Rose Nut Assembly from Musicians Friend Sperzel Locking Tuners 6 in Line from Musicians Friend 2 DP159 DiMarzio Evolution Pickups (Black F Spaced) from Musicians Friend Dunlop Dual Design Straplok System from Musicians Friend Acryl Spray Paint and sealer
