Thank you guys !! the guitar plays great it has very powerfull sound with that D sonic picup and lots of sustain i like it !!METAL MATT!! - the blak inlay at the bridge is ebony sawdust mixed with epoxy . Pott- the wings were 40X20X5 cm . and there is neck angle but i dont remember the correct number . i drew side view blueprint and found the angle using the bridge height. i hope you can see the angle in this pic .

Today i finally finished the guitar after four long months . I painted the guitar with car lacquer and it looks go i think . Here some pic ! http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/100_2396.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/4.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/5.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/3.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/6.jpg

The green guitar is one i bought and it is some kind of cheap korean guitar calld venson it is my first electric guitar.

Cool i am wating to see your work . I think that the neck is harder to be built then the boby but not to hard . I built neck through the guitar and it was easy. i think bolts is harder to do because you have to aling everything . As you can see this is my first project and it looks ok The only fear i have with this neck is that i will shave to much wood over the trust rod chanel or it will be brake where the glue is because i glued it with 24 hour epoxy and i think i put to much hardner . I dont know about tops and paint but if you have other qestions just ask .

Yeh it is chubby for now i am still in the progres of making the shape of the neck for now it is 22 mm at nut and 25 at 12 fret . after i will do the shape for the fingerboard put the frets and put strings on it i will know how it fells then i will do the final shaping . I want it like ibanez 19 at nut and 22 at 12 fret . By the way i like opeth too they are realy great .

Thank you all . this is my first time with real wood . Till now i built RC planes made of balsa hard wood is new to me . The neck was cut with Bandsaw . I want to do a clear finish i thought to use clear auto paint since it makes a very hard shell around the wood. if someone have some better way to do that i am open to suggestions . http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y152/ramanff/100_2341.jpg ADMIN EDIT- Pics in posts should be no larger than 640x480.

Ok .. i understend what you say and i have already considered that since this is my first experience with building a guitar i left plenty of wood spares when i cut the parts so it is easier to work . But still i dont understand how high should the strings be above the fingerborad and whether i should to lift the fingerboard above the body . ??? As you know this will effect the angel . I circled in this zoomed picture of the neck to wing joint . Thank you for your help . Roman

I am bulding my fiest guitar it is mockingbird neck through 24 3/4 scale with tune o matic bridge . I allready cut everything and now i am going to glue the neck to the wings but i dont know where to glue it . because i dont know these parameters ( A & B ) and the the angel i should glue it because i will use tun o matic bridge .
