  1. I actually decided to go with guitarheads...they are really powerful...and they arent muddy at all.
  2. Would a basswood lespaul with a maple neck sound ok? im intrested in this because of my friends custom paul with this combo sounds muddy to me.... Any advice is appreciated
  3. Would this sound okay? or will it make a difference at all?
  4. anybody here use gorilla wood glue? That **** rocks!
  5. yep that makes sense and ill think that will be the method i try.
  6. okay...so your saying to only add wood where its needed? the guitar im building is an SG replica and they always seemed somewhat smaller to me..
  7. thanks...thats what i told them but they said it might be weak...
  8. Any ideas on how to get a piece of mahogany with the measurements of 2.5" thick, 22" long and 11" wide to 1.5" thick, 20" long and 12" wide? I asked my dad and grandfather (both know a fair bit about woodworking) and they said saw it down and piece together...would this work?
  9. Im going to use some dragonfire emg clones in my project and I'm thinking about using the mahogany on a 'paul build for a friend...alder is my next choice...
  10. couldn't a laser potentially burn then wood? If not and you have access to a laser cutter show us some pics
  11. I agree with the above...less chance of cutting fingers... x-acto's tend to slip on plastic sheet for pickguards
  12. You just need a sharp blade and a bit of force...thats what my local guitar/luthier-shop guy told me to use
  13. found some nice mahogany...thanks for all the help
  14. Im going for a megadeth/metallica sound...I think mustaine's guitars are mahogany and Kirks are alder...thats mostly where my issue is...
  15. Has anybody here used them? I am particularly drawn to their EMG 81 clones...they sound all right in my friends guitar. Any help appreciated.
  16. Thanks...any place where I can get a cheap-ish mahogany blank? Any suggestions on neck wood?
  17. try using a BRAND NEW x-acto knife...thats what i use. Good Luck
  18. Thanks for the help...I think I'll go with Mahogany. Thats what SG's are still made of right?
  19. I need to know which wood would be better for a metal SG: Alder or Mahogany Thanks in advance
