    i am afraid that those oils dont protect from moisture and hand sweat..Besides i think i should apply oil in very short times...So my mind goes to satin poly/water finish... Would the wood be more protected ?Does it have the same smooth feeling as oil finishes???
  2. theodoropoulos
    for the back of the neck...How about danish?
  3. theodoropoulos
    Which kind oil finish would you suggest for the neck?? i search for a good protection from moisture and hand sweat.. is linseed oil enough or should i add tru-oil??

    i think you are particulary right.I am trying now to find some photos in internet and have found one fantastic. But they could use the same texture for example and put the guitar in different zero point to start cutting. So perhaps same texture ,different putted texture.But the factory is very difficult to have only one texture sample.Do not know...Let see.... interesting point of view....

    this piece of art is wood sprayed with metal painting(copper) http://www.scottwalkerguitars.com/Fathmed.html
  9. theodoropoulos
    do you guys think that the material painted is wood or is it wood covered by metal paintings in order to achieve patina like (tan ) results??

    On first glimpse i thought the same thing. Etched or cnc routed, its hard to say but they have done a really good job on it. I think Wez could be on the money to with the dye black sand back the high spots call. can anybody explain how can we make etching to make such a texture?
  11. theodoropoulos
    by reading very carefully they refer something about ETCHING.... i have no idea how will this be achieved...anybody?
  12. theodoropoulos
    i was amazed by this guitar http://dbzguitars.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=988 any idea how the hell is made this texture?

    My problem is that i want to spray liquid copper or iron and the Sculpt Nouveaou suggests HVLP spray gun in 70-90 psi...My question is why must i buy this special gun? Because the density of liquid copper is much bigger than for example a laquer?Is this HVLP special for these densities? 4:18 time refering of the video
  14. theodoropoulos
    I have no idea if i can adjust an HVLP spray gun to a normal compressor or do i nead a special or airless... thank you

    I wanted to ask how do you make angle in pots in order to have the pots vertical to the carved top and not to the base of the guitar.... I show a method in a link .tell me your opinion... http://home.asparagine.net/ant/blog/?page_id=30 (Nov 19 2004, 12:25 AM)

    thank you!!!! in the official site of Ibanez there are such infos about widths.But in Strat's there are not..

    I am planning to use a tremolo with 5.631 cm string spacing http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bridges,_tailp...b=Specs#details My question is: for a 25.5" scale ,is the width 5.8 cm at the 24th fret ,enough?
  22. theodoropoulos
    thanx guys..i'll figure out!!
  23. theodoropoulos
    it has already #9 gauge strings.I have tigheted the truss rod already but is comes upwards in the middle of the fretboard not at the area of the 1 string... Have you heard it again in the past such a situation?
  24. theodoropoulos
    I have a problem with my Lp.The distance "string-fretboard" in the 7th fret seems high in the 1 string although i have set the action in the bridge and the nut very low.This doesn't occur in the other srings so much especially in the 6th (low E) .Is it possible to twist the neck such a way (only in one part of the neck) and what is the remedy?I think i should use 2 carbon fibre left and right of the truss rod next time....

    I am planning to use poly over waterbased grainfiller and waterbased sealer. http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Finishing_supp...ain_Filler.html http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Finishing_supp...ing_Sealer.html Is there any compatibility problem with poly?
