wrong,i'm not actually buildin,i'm giving suggestions,so feck off
-
so do you have any pick ups in mind?wat sound/style do u like to play?
-
hey garry,moneys rolling in now lol,everytime i see the guitar it still has that'wow' factor than wen i first seen it,hope sue is getting a raise for that
lol.when are u planing on finishing it?as in putting it back togethor?
-
why?seems a good idea,it will seal it and stop the glue seaping through,look,i'm trying my hardest here,i dont no a lot about wood as much as you guys,at least i'm trying
-
have you looked at the led tutorial?that tells you how to set the lights up,or just crew the whole led thing and get some ''glowdotz'' lol
-
how?lets say ur truss rod is 1 meter...just think lol,all u need to do is to lenthen the cavity my 5cm or so,and when you route your neck pocket,drill a ho,le fron the pick up cavity,to the truss cavity?
-
ahh,i was thinking of a glued in neck,sorry,have u got the tools to rifle dill?just drill a hole from the pick up cavity,to the truss rod cavity,and u have a rout for the wires,i guess u have to make sure that the wires dont go near the truss rod by extending the truss rod cavity,sory for the confusin lol,but there's a way for everything i guess
-
near lanark?south lanarkshire...west-end
-
lets say u have the neck wired up,and u have the wire comin outa the bridge,and then u drill a hole through the neck pocket through to the pickup cavity to feed the wires to,and then as there is already a hole to let the pickup wires reach the control cavity,feed the led wires through there,assuming u want an on/off switch at the control cavity
i could draw a picture if ur really stuck,but i'm frustrated the now as the comp is freezing lol,but if ur making the neck through from scratch,it should be easy...ish lol
-
could you not use vinyl sealer?i dunno if thats the name of the company's product or not,but behlen make it,and it says that wen putting on a pollyurathane gloss finish,its recomended to finish the wood/guitar with vinyl sealer,then polyurathane finish it,would that work?its to stop it bleeding through heres a picture,i tried getting info elswere,but this is the only way,it tells you about the vinyl sealer at the bottom,and its only £7 per quarter gallon
hope that helps,cause its been 45 minutes since i read this to try and get the info up !! lol.just trying to prove i no a little bit about this sorta stuff,i bet its got nothing to do with wat u want lol,sorry anyway
-
u can install the lights as usual,then thread a wire throught the bridge pickup,then through to the controls,and make a switch.my way seems way to expensive tho.isnt it just the same as a bolt on?
-
ahh,the ''buy a set of four,then by 2 indaviduals'' makes sense now,but they wont match up,i'll just buy eight,its cheaper than buying 6...doesnt make sense but it does lol
-
use a paper template,like stick it to the neck,fold over and cut,and poke out the holes,then place the paper in the neck pocket,and drill away
-
wat u mean every supplier you've seen sells them in kits?like 6?and i'm from uk,so all the american sites aren't a lot of help,cause i gotta pay 30-40 pounds,not just shiping,.but for tax and stuff,so i'll never do that again
-
hey,i have honestly looked everywere,but i am looking for tuners for a six string bass,but they only come in fours!it is really annoying,the only way i can fnd them,is if i buy 2 sets of 4 tuners,then i will see a pack of 6 somewere lol.
well i guess i'm askin if anyone knows were i can find them?preferably Y shaped,black
thanks
-
so was it actual fibre optics?or led's?if it was led's,would u be so kind to tell me how?lol.
i'm planning to do it to my bass i'm makin,but i cant if i have no clue lol
-
yeah,sory for not replying earlier,about a day after i asked the question,i got a slotted,radioused indian rosewood,6 string fretboard,and some other stuff,including a router
lol
-
wow,and matching green pickups,the middle one looks best,but that is gonna look really sweet,and i spose the great thing about it is that its so uniqe,until u post pics of ur guitar,i will then take ur pics,print them,stick them on my axe and...anyway lol.but that looks great,its incredible how u find the time,and other people,to do these great things
-
yeah,but it has been treated,and must be strenthened,and its been sealed,anyway,never mind,i have managed to get in contact with some,and i can either get an ebony,pre slotted,or either brazilion or indian rosewood,i'm going for the rosewood i think,thanks for all the help guys,much appreciated,nice to talk to guitarists who actually no a thing or two,rather than my usual crowd of''i play squire and greenday rules''god dam hate them eople lol,anyway,thanks for the help
-
ooo,i was drawing a pretty good strat,but without pickups,i was on the body,its at my schools computer,so i cant get it,but i can make an awsome bo-diddely
(the square guitar)
-
yeah,a sort of ''jump'' ''how high sir'' sorta thing lol
any reason why not having spalted maple?
-
and now you have confused me again lol,but i do have it sorted no,took down some rough notes and stages,i have it all worked out in theory now,just the practise to go lol
so wood spalted maple be good for a fretboard,i no its the same as maple,so it shouldnt be a problem?
-
''So if you're doing a 34" scale bass, position your bridge so that the G string is 34" away from the nut, having already moved it forward (toward the nut) along its range of adjustment.
''
wow greg,that helps a lot,now it all makes sense and makes planin a lot easier,its going to be a 35 inch,
i never actually made the body on the 6 string,just some of the neck
i just put it together a few mins ago,playin it now
lol
and thanks for the welcome,i've been on the projectguitar homepage a lot,but never knew there was a forum lol
-
so its safe to say he's rich then,i really like that ghecko,and the finding nemo style one,the one with the clown fish,just because of the orange,that is one uniqe talent u got there,its so uniqe i keep forgetteing to put the ''U'' in unique lol
hey craig,do you know any u.k
wood campanies?i'm searching for some rosewood for a fretboard,but as easy as it may seem,i cant find any,only found fretboards for a 4 string bass,i've even toyed with the idea of buying 2 and fitting them togethor,like a bookmatched style lol.
