  1. The pictures doesn't work. What brand and model are thoes pickups? I kind of interested in them. Plus, whats their weight? (to calculate the shipping fees and see if it worth it) and are you willing to send outside of your country if I will pay the shipping and all?
  2. i love the shape and the whole idea but the headstock is pretty odd, reminds me the Dean guitars headstock, and i hate them, plus, the body doesn't seem to have enough weight to create the right balace. anyway, thats a great job beside that, and thats a very cool project. and i really loved your shape what color will it be? (i don't thing you'll leave the wood grains for some reason)
  3. how did you made thoes metal flakes? that thing is owesome, i wanna do it on my upcoming project as a base layer for my color so it will shine a bit
  4. we have a very calm weather in here.. once in a while we get a sand twirl going around town, but we got used to it, just closing the windows and wait until it goes away. and half a year we live in a 40-55C kind of weather... oh, and earthquakes.. damn this israeli weather! (about 3 miles from Egypt, northern its a bit chillier) i love your weather, its cool and its not that your grass is greener, lets see any of you going out when its 55C outside.. great pictures
  5. great work i love the ironbird inlays and the V shape are you going to inlay the V as well? the V headstock shape doesn't interupt the strings to get into the nut? and like the one above mentioned, how much did thoes teenagers payed? and it would be a shame to paint flat black that V, it got a very nice texture and color :\
  6. the neck bows toward the strings, where should i look for it to be c-clockwise? thats why i made thoes 2 pictures :$ thanks for helping i screwed it cc wise, if i look from the body position, until the truss rod nut fell out, and yet, theres a bow. what can i do? and have i screwed to the right direction? (BC Rich bronze guitar)
  7. if the neck bends upside, to which direction should i move the truss rod? 1. http://members.lycos.nl/y0ni/Uploader/Uploads/1.JPG 2. http://members.lycos.nl/y0ni/Uploader/Uploads/2.JPG thanks in advance ^^
  8. thanks alot, it seems not really that neccessery for my 4 string bass plan, but if i'll make any other one, i'll be sure to use this info. thanks alot!
  9. thanks for all the great information. so i've figured i just need to put the carbon fibers on the sides of the truss rod and glue it all to its place, right? and is the 2 rods thing, the one that does a U shape, works any better? and thoes fibers doesn't mess with my option to "play" with the truss rod to adjust the curve of the neck? by the way, sorry for my lame English, blame Israel..
  10. i've read a book which recomanded adding carbon stripes to the neck in order to make it harder, so the neck won't bend while changing guages of strings. anyway, is it really nessecery, where can i get it, and how should i add it to my maple \ mahogany going-to-be-neck?
  11. open can, he means he's dropped the price to 25, its still for sale, you ought to pm him ← "if no one intrested ill post it on Ebay on thursday" I've PMed him of course, then when he didn't replied i though that if i'll bump this thread i might get some info. dont know which thursday he ment, and if someone already bought it. oh, and haven't found it on eBay either, might be my lousy eBay skills though..
  12. 1. i'm planning a neckthrough. 2. i want to get a basic model and edit it, so i have the dimentions. i want to edit the basic figure of a P-Bass, thats why i want its template. yet, its my first project, so i need everything build, tried and proved working, so i'll be able to learn how to work with thoes things. then i'll make more on my own
