@chops1983: Thank you! , hopefully all the effort will be worth it, i am aware of the fact that it doesn't look not even near to a pro guitar, had i had the right tools and experience, certainly things would have been better. The neck pocket has a 3-4 degree angle, just perfect so i have a very low action on the fretboard. The TOM might just be angled a bit too much, but i've tested it out somehow (slotted it and put some strings on it) and the "untuned" bridge, with all the saddles in middle position has either (in APTUNER) +20 (24 fret the small E) or -50 on the thick E (the big one, also at the 24th fret). At the 12th fret the seem to be kinda ok, with +/- 10 in direction. Ovcourse after i finnish the finish i'll try to do the right setup.
@dpm99: I wouldn't consider an innovation doing a job with the "wrong" tools, wish i had them, things would have been much better. Thank you Dave!
@anderekel:
1)Just as i replied chops1983, this might be indeed an issue. The thing why i angled it this much is because it was too wide and the extremical strings would have "fallen" off the fretboard. It was very hard obtaining the bridge in the first place, not to talk about exchanging it with another.
2) Intially i angled the neck along the "center" line of the guitar, and then calculated the position of the bridge acording to the 12 fret and centerline, right now bot extremal strings are at about 2 mm away from each margin of the fretboard (just that they don't fall off). Also the neck pocket has an angle of about 3-4 degrees so that the action is low and nice.
3) Never though of it like that :| I tried figuring out a lot of possible problems and avoinding them, but just could think of that one. i would have left some wood on if i had a router , just like a strat. I hope that the 4 bolts hold it in place and it doesn't move.
4) well the control cavity will be covered with a piece of plexy/wood in which the controls will rest, if it gets dirty, i'll clean it .
I am really happy you like the shape, it took me a while to find the exact roundness/position for every curve so that it suits my needs and body and so that the guitar is also well balanced in any playing style. The guy that sold a friend of mine the pick-ups (he brought me them from the States) that i should put the Gibson in neck and the seymour duncan in bridge position. Also the seymour is actually a humbucker in single coil size.
The neck was bought from a friend that had a guitar with a cheap floyd rose copy, which he converted to a hardtail so it would stop getting out of tune easily. He didn't need this neck anymore yey for me. I guess i can use to keep mine from getting out of tune easily .
Thank you guys for the piece of advice and support, and excuse me for my bad english. Best of Luck! Happy to be here.
later edit: i tried doing a setup a few minutes ago, but problems soon occured. on the first few strings dgbe (the lower ones) the intonation is corect at the 12th and ~22 fret (24 is off a bit), but on E and A at the 12th fret the guitar is out of tune with half a semitone/quarter-tone (-25 as one might have it). Is that reaaaly bad?
