  1. Me likes it 2! : ) But that top looks that it would give splinters But that's the guitar I'd like to have. Want to see more progress! -Juze aka Ghroath
  2. Thath 6th string at tailpiece confuses me. Why is it put like thath? -Juze aka Ghroath
  3. Woot! 3 string bass?! (I know it's gonna be 5-stringer) But clean and nice work. Love the headstock shape too! -Juze aka Ghroath
  4. I think, it looks like a pregnant lady's tummy. Round like a ball -Juze aka Ghroath
  5. OT: Well I know that Prostheta's wife Nina is suomalainen. (How can I have that good name-memory? : O) -Juze aka Ghroath
  6. Well, I expressed myself not so clearly. But now I'm going to glue the wings to my neck-through blank, because I finally have some long enough clamps. -Juze aka Ghroath
  7. Holy crap that is sexy But those intonation screws look screwed up. (Yea I know they're not right ones) -Juze aka Ghroath
  8. Actually I've done "much" progress on this, but I'm kinda slacker type of person, so haven't updated this... Today I used spokeshave first time in my life. And I love it. I made tummy carve (Deep like in strato) and I think it came out nice. I have fretboard blank "raw-tapered" and slotted. I', not sure when I'm going to glue it in. I mean if I should carve the neck before or after gluing the FB on... I got 4 (8mmx80mmx550mm) fretboard blanks for free from my dad Actually I already did one fretboard and inlaid it, but somehow mistakely it was too narrow, so I just got pissed off and I snapped in half and "saved" the MOP dots. They're just so thin so I don't know what to do with them... -Juze aka Ghroath
  9. Woah! That's one classy SC. I mostly don't like Singlecuts, but that looks like one I'd like Also I like its thickness, how much is it? But yeah, keep up the good work! -Juze aka Ghroath
  10. Prostheta, that is effin cool! Maybe I'll build same kind of device, have some legos from over the years. Finally some usage for 'em. : ) That is what I call creative. -Juze aka Ghroath
  11. Yea the bottom needs to be smoothed. I did it with a drill press with a forstner bit -Juze aka Ghroath
  12. Ok. Got some work done on friday and took the neck blank and treble-side wing to home from school. I routed the trussrod slot but I didn't route it all the way to the end (nut end). Made the control cavity. It looks horrible, but that's why I've cover for it. The recess for the cover has not been done yet and the cover is not fully ready, just some raw outlines. SO, pics! (Some pics are blurry and s**t) I'm almost ashamed to show pics if compared to most builds here. Frontal pic The line between the laminates. (Looks almost like a pencil line) Cavity without cover. Cavity with cover. I can't see that chalk mess with eye, but damn it pops in those pictures. : ( -Juze aka Ghroath
  13. Nice work Jari, here fellow Suomalainen(Finnish for you non-finnish speakers)! : ) Top on that LP is cool, even that it's just planed. I have my own 7 string RG-style build going on, but I haven't wrote so much about it on the build thread and put no pictures actually. : ( -Juze aka Ghroath
  14. Link Took like 1 second to find, but np. -Juze aka Ghroath
  15. Woah. That's really nice! I just thought that those "growing" to 24th fret, But that suits better those inlays. Interested in seeing more this! : ) -Juze aka Ghroath
  16. I've succesfully opened DWG's and DWF's as well as many others with turbocad professional 15. (Sound quite commercial, but what the heck. ) -Juze aka Ghroath
  17. They meant, that the ferrules would be aligned to the edge of the guitar perpendicularly same distance than the other ferrules. Hope you understood what I meant. -Juze aka Ghroath
  18. Yea, kinda just that. And the headstock's design is not allright, the tuners won't fit in it. Also I would like so much to make a walnut stripe in the neck (about 1 cm) if I have time to do it... I haven't actually played any walnut necks before, but now when I've seen that all wood is walnut it looks kinda simple. And I do like maple neck and walnut stripe in it. Very sexy -Juze aka Ghroath
  19. Yesterday I actually got nothing done on this. I have some maple in my warm storage so I think I'm going to make a new neck blank from it, would be much better than that sh***y walnut as a neck. What do you guys think? -Juze aka Ghroath
  20. I want it to be thick because the minimum of my tuners is something like 17 mm. BUT, Here are the drawings. Hope you understand what I mean. Neck blank at the moment. Cut. Red line is the outline of the blank. Black is the cut line and the torquise line is the piece that will be attached to the blank. -Juze aka Ghroath
  21. Ok, sorry. I thought I was clear enough. But I just read my posts and understood that I nearly gave any info. Later I'll upload some cad pics what my neck blank looks like atm. So... My neck blank is about 4 cm (It will be thinner.) I want 15 degree angle. I'll use http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/img/anck3.jpg scarf way. Or would you recommend the other way. That seems easier to me. Yeah. I want to make headstock from a different piece of wood. I have NOT added the truss rod neither the fretboard. As said earlier. I'll make some CAD drawings to help you understand. : ) PS. Do you guys think that 20 mm thick headstock is too thick? -Juze aka Ghroath
  22. Hey please, could someone reply to this. I mean answer to my previous question. I hopefully can continue making my guitar on friday. -Juze aka Ghroath
  23. I think Xanthus referred Dave to David. But I also first looked that not original name for girlfriend... -Juze aka Ghroath
