no problems if you like i can draw you up a complte schematic. alittle more profesionaly

Link to schem'

I showed a stereo jack but i showed it broken up where the black battery snap connects to the ground when there is a plug inserted.

Cheers once again Ansil, you have been a huge help!

I showed them the first diagram you did and they seemed pretty confident they can do this easily!, ill take in this new one today to see if it can clear anything they might be confused about up

Thanks once again Ansil!!

~~ TS ~~

Hey cheers Ansil!

Took my guitar into the college yesterday and chucked it at electronics dept' n they said theyll tinker n play lol!!

** 1000TH POST **

Thanks once again Ansil, ill take that in tommorow and show them!

~~ TS ~~

Sorry my post ended up not being very relevant.. please delete if you want!

~~ TS ~~

Routing done, primer on, pics soon.

Did you get the routing sorted then? or is it still a "trainwreck"

Look forward to the next stage of pictures!

~~ TS ~~

It begins to remind me of the inlay on the DNA guitars

Its quite nice, but i agree with the majority that it doesnt really suit the "style" of guitar!

Nice inlay jsut perhaps on a different guitar

~~ TS ~~

Is anybody having trouble with the sign up? Somebody told me they had trouble.

Registering seems fine to me

It will also have a homesite which will include videos on playing, video tutorials, online tuners, tutorials and a hella lot more.

Just remember how much bandwith you are going to use streaming videos! The online tuner thing could be cool, theres a few about already if you need the ideas (most are Java based but ive seen one or two flash based)

If you need anyhelp with that forum of yours gimme a shout, i moderate on a couple of boards and im admin of another, so i know my way around the control panel fairly well now

~~ TS ~~

I definitly agree that there should be some more catagories, that way more organisation can be achived

Also do you mean the "open space" is the bit between the left hand side title and the right where the post count etc is? if so thats not very easily changed since its all to do with the screen res of your computer (as far as im aware anyway)

~~ TS ~~

Eeewww double post inside itself... straaange :|

possibly. would you want any other parts to? i was thinking about taking out the tremolo and going tuneomatic.

Getting the routing done tomorrow, and bought a "The Breed" neck pup.

A breed neck pup. For the bridge... Damn my innattention.

Did I just destroy any chance of getting a good sound out of my guitar, if I go ahead and install this pickup?

In the bridge position, it has a very warm, hot PAF® tone--really smooth, with nice harmonics.

- Dimarzio website, regarding the breed neck humbucker.

I think itll still sound ok at the neck, if not just shift it to the bridge and buy yourself another neck pup.

However i still think it should sound "ok", Give it a go and find out

~~ TS ~~

What do you think guys?

TGF

I need to polish and buffing.

Hey i really like it

My only gripe would be where the cavity for the trem is, id like to see that bit done as well, but apart from that looks real good

~~ TS ~~

heres my strat. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/skatz82/albu...atz82/my_photos

i took 2 pics of the neck cuz it looks like it bends both ways in either pic. but its as straight as an arrow. i dontr know if you still want a strat but pm me if your interseted in it.

p.s. i have the purple/blue/red pickguard and the red pearloid one.

edit: forgot to say that its a 2002 standard strat in awesome condition

Hey Skatz

Im no longer interested in buying a strat since i am now having one built for me, i just need to find the neck so would you be willing to part that one out?

~~ TS ~~

Anybody got a nice strat neck for sale? preferbly Maple although rosewood works for me

Doesnt HAVE to be strat, any nice necks that will fit, esp' with nice inlays im interested in!

~~ TS ~~

lol nopes but thought im bored of seeing lots of black text lol, and inspired by Petes green sig, i decided to have fun

~~ TS ~~

Nice one PSW

Welcome aboard Vinny,!!

~~ TS ~~

Ok the cruiser is sold!

THE GSP7 PREAMP/PROCESSOR IS STILL AVAILABLE

~~ TS ~~

if you REALLY must quote, remove the tags so its just a link

That's actually in the rules.

Doesnt mean people read 'em

Aaah well couldnt hurt to mention it again Mark

~~ TS ~~

Just following up the "quote" issue!

I also hate it when people quote the same picture 5 or 6 times just to say "Nice work" if you REALLY must quote, remove the tags so its just a link

~~ TS ~~

Hey guys

Lately, ive got a craving for a nice strat, so im willing to trade my cruiser (purple maple veneer) which plays suprsingly well and has been used in MANY gigs without backup

And

A nice GSP7 Preamp/Processor rack unit from 1991

The cruisers ONLY flaw is the trem bar is stuck in, it rotates so its not an issue it just means it doesnt ever come away from the body

The GSP7 is in great condition and sounds wondeful, only cosmetic flaw is some marks on the top from rack mounting

Pics on request,

I know i wont be getting a high end strat for this but a genuine FENDER strat is all im after here

Im also open to other guitars with 3 SC's if i like em!

~~ TS ~~

Ok cheers guys

Luckily at the "college" im at, the electronics dept' isnt half bad so i might take a wonder down there and see if he wants to give me a hand with this small project!

Aah dear my guitars are basically all LEDS

~~ TS ~~

Ok, this might seem simple for some of you electronics guru but as i only did GCSE electronics course, this bit feels a little above me!

I want to make a simple(?) circuit that enables leds to light up depending on what pickup your using.

Plan is to drill out some cavitys and mount the LEDS either surrounding or underneath the pups, then as you select the pickup to play, they also light up.

I think itd be pretty cool to have although i dont know how simple?

The current setup is a standard 3SC setup with 5way select!

Any ideas then guys?

Thanks

~~ TS ~~

ahh,, now I see why you chose that colour...

+1!

Definitly looks very cool with that pickguard! Nice choice!

~~ TS ~~

I didnt mind the old colour but this is your project not mine

Got any pictures of this new colour? Im interested to see how this new one looks!!

~~ TS ~~

@Thunderblitz: sorry to hear that, but i love RG/JEM lol

Its just that you see them everywhere. All I see and hear is Ibanez, Ibanez, Ibanez. Even if its custom built, it still a Ibanez body. But hey its your choice and taste I respect it.

Its just that I think you could make better than that, something that is rare or even something you designed yourself. There is so many Ibanez in the world, its not original anymore....

Hell what do I know, I shut myself up.

Id say there are less ibanez's out there then there is cheap strat knockoffs

** Back on subject **

As many members probably know, im a huge fan of the JEM series from ibanez... regarding your pickup woes..

have a look around www.dimarzio.com , Evo(2)s are very good pups and so are the Breeds. For your single coil, something like a dimarzio HS-2 or HS-3 might suit your needs

Good luck with the build
