  1. Those heels are something else!!! I can imagine how comfy that is.
  2. Nice semi hemi work! You do this after you install the wire? I would love to hear about your technique.
  3. That's a really nice guitar. I'm really glad I followed this build.
  4. That shade of blue is incredible. Almost sapphire. Wich color will the hardware be?
  5. A trick long used to install string-thru ferrules is puhing them with a soldering iron. The heat softens the clear preventing cracks.
  6. I would suggest to countersink those ferrules or at least sanding them completely flush.
  7. The only thing I hate is that facial hair is already growing in the second (amber) one.
  8. I feel you man, whenever I work on the shop (no A/C) I drip all over the place, my son sometimes help and he can't get over it and leaves. ha, ha,
  9. What method (brush, rag) do you use to apply the C/A ?
  10. Wes, we all know it was you, don't blame the bandsaw.....
  11. looking good, try to feather that burst a little bit more and you're golden.
  12. If you're going that route, I'd advise you against Cyanoacrylate ( if that's what you meant), try to make a shim with a sliver of maple and use titebond or equivalent.
  13. Thanks I new the 17th didn't quite sound right. (DamnOld Age) Ha,ha,....We're not getting any younger...
  14. Your frets will not seat properly, that will lead to intonation and sustain issues. Scrap vote here.
  15. The joint should be at the 16th fret so, no way that gap is going to close. As mentioned by Chris, call the supplier and try to work something out.
  16. Looking good!! Nice finish,and yes, rings could be refined some more.
  17. How do you like that Carruth scraper? Better than a normal (thin) one?
  18. If you're careful you can remove and reglue that board, it's been done thousands of times in repair shops.
  19. It's not a "miracle" or anything - it did cut out a bit of the work, but made some in another way, hense it was hard to keep from diggin in sometimes and hard to get a smooth surface. Maybe I just more practice using it. I'm sure once you get used to it you'll never use anything else.
  20. Toggle is standard pots should be 25k outputjack should be stereo for switching battery on
  21. I like how it looks now. Not a fan of high gloss. Either way I'm sure it will look awesome at the end.
