Ok I am dumb.
-
Yeah I have big lack of practise on crazy train as I learned to play it at same day when I recorded this but I tought that black sabbath stuff would be boring. Is dimend jcm800 amp or what?
-
Now I recorded short soundsample http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLB5lDPv9u0
-
I want those woods Very good looking build
-
Now it looks better
-
Thanks Scott, My friend told me exactly same about pickups but works for me
-
Yes I chaced my mind at the course I tought that cutaways would look too narrow if I carve them. Also this maple was damm rock to work with so chisels couldnt get enything done. If you thing how I did all carved spots, I made them with big belt sander.
-
Now I took better pictures. Now I want comments I will maybe post a sound sample to youtube soon so stay tuned
-
Nice idea. Many wouldnt do that at this stage anymore
-
Thanks. Sadly I couldnt test it yet becoase plugwire broke day before I finished this
-
Now its ready (needs backplate and jack plate scrows were shity so i have to change them) I will post better pictures tomorrow. It plays really well and strings can run nearly on frets with out buzz. Remember to tell how you like it.

isn´t that too early ? Usually people let nitro finish cure month so or before buffing. Yes if you use normal buffing methods but I used method were I melted lacquer with alcohol. when done many times it becomes glossy. That doesnt stress the surface at all. Called "Pulituuri)

Tony Iommi-Dirty women: just good

Now finnish is buffed to high gloss I also started to asemble it, Tuners are in and bridge is on place, Tomorrow I will do wire it and put strings on it.
-
I like surface to smooth but not plastic like some black strat copys. This guitar goes whit nitro becose I have allready bought it and I also prepped my guitar to super gloss finish.
-
Looks cool
-
I would have gone with a hand rubbed Danish oil you can get a nice finish out of that. I just ut it on a strat It looks really good that strat is walnut and maple, I think it would look good on your guitar but either way a clear coat would be good on it too. I am curious about oils. Is danish oil same thing that is put to gun stocks. And does surface stay as wooden or does it give thicker finish. Just tell everything
-
I will be going with clear nitro. I can start aplying finish at tuesday.
-
Now I just need to prep it for finish. What kind of finish should I do
-
I just made guitar without finnish in 3 days
-
Are you going to do any carve?
-
I have some really nice grain patterns on body so I will just lacquer it. Not sure about staining yet
-
Tomorrow I still have shape the neck, drill tunner holes and carve cutaways and maybe next week it will get some nitro over it. Kinda fast build
-
Little more pictures
-
Heavy to carry around. Should I glue ears to the headstock
