  1. Dude the wire running from volume IS the ground wire. Switches don't really change unless it has more places to switch to, they all work the same way. There are ones like the super switch which allow a lot more switching possibilites. If the pickups are the sametype as your current ones there shouldnt be any problems. if it is strat style just wire the ground wires to the top of the v pot and the other wires to the ame positions on the switch as your old one.

  2. Im looking at the mockingbird bass body form warmoth. Does anyone have a good history wih them. Will they work with any neck or will i have to buy a warmoth one also.

    Ive been thinking of getting a lacewood laminate top on korina, Good combination?

    Is there a point having a bass tremolo, i play mostly rhcp stuff and a bit of primus.

  3. I built a strat using different parts and i wired it up correctly in accordance with the seymour duncan wiring page. However now i can feel electricity running through the wires and there is a really loud buzzing noise through the amp.

    Does anyone have any idea how i can fix it, have i burned the pots or anything like that?

  4. OK, I have built a les paul custom style body out of alder. I have sanded it perfectly and filled the grain. Now i am looking to get a good old cherryburst finish for a relatively cheap amount.

    I have searched as much as i can in these forums and on other websites but i can't undestand how to do the burst finish so i have a few questions.

    What sort of paints can i use to do this, e.g spray and what colors?(if possible list Places in australia, but not too important)

    What is the basic process of doing this, please make this as detailed as possible because remember, i am a beginner.

    What sort of finish do i put on it, last body i finished turned out terribly. How can i aplly this so it looks nice.

    Where can i get a CUSTOM (note that word, don't rip my head off!) Headstock decal for a standard LP custom head in australia? I only want a fairly simple design.

    Finally i was just wondering about where i could find p-90 soapbar pickups in australia, and for what sort of cost.

    please reply soon :D

  5. does anyone know of a parts supplier in australia that supplies wood and hardware?

    im trying to go for mahogany or basswood, are these any good for basses.

    Also are there any good tutorials on building necks because the neck building tutorial page wont load for me on projectguitar.com

    Im planning on a through neck, by the way

  6. HI, im planning to build a body for a bass, in particular a gene simmons axe style bass.

    I need to know of a lightweight, easy to work with wood that is fairly cheap .

    I was also wondering, if i use the distance from the nut of my current neck to the bridge and cut the new body and put the bridge the same dist i could just then put my neck on the new body and it should be fine right?

    I know he has a kramer aluminum neck but i dont want his bass, i just want the style.

    Please help, ive never built a bass b4

  7. I have refinished my guitar, sanded, painted and glossed my guitar but now that it is back together it just wont let me tune the strings poperly, i can only tune the deep e an octave higher than normal, also the intonation is perfect(or close to) what can i do to fix this.

  8. I have a strat copy guitar which i have been re-building with a new neck and everything, but i am going to replace my neck pickup with a humbucker, how big do i have to route out of my body, it is currently 9cm by 2cm.

    Does anybody have any idea of a website where i can oprder decals in australia, or will someone get me one and send it.

    Ill post pics of my guitar when its done.
