  1. HELLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NURSE!
  2. Someone get me a tissue, I think I'm gonna cry...
  3. I'm with DCamp... I'd pay good money to see the look on your face when reality takes a chunk out of your ass.
  4. All the more reason for you to read what Darren wrote...
  5. temper, temper, little grasshopper...
  6. I swear, Wes, you're obsessed with those things... if you're using a bridge that might not conduct the ground signal to the strings, though, active pickups are probably your best shot.
  7. Well... why don't you just draw up something? That solution takes care of all of the ifs, ands, buts, and maybes.
  8. But that takes all the fun out of it...
  9. Any recommendations, Ansil? BTW, there are ways to express an opinion without coming across like an arrogant prick.
  10. I used the two cans that came with the Mirage kits (which weren't that great), and about a can and a half of the T/V/SUV stuff, which was noticably better. I put on about ten coats, polished it out with high-grade steel wool and Meguiars #7 (the "Show Car Glaze"). It's not the ultra-deep gloss that you see on some of the Carvin axes, but that's more due to my ability than to the paint itself. A few more coats, a little better polishing, and it definately could be.
  11. You can probably build one for around $200 if you go cheap, around $600 if you go moderate, and the sky's the limit on anything else.
  12. Answer: yes, they're worth the $100. Not worth much more than that, but they are worth it.
  13. I haven't used it myself, but from the descriptions, you may get a good tone out of a Steve's Special.
  14. I just got done using the Duplicolor "truck, van, and SUV" clear on a tele... no clouding problems here at all.
  15. I guess I'm confused as to why you wouldn't simply apply a duplicolor clearcoat over a duplicolor color coat in the first place.
  16. Check these out... http://www.universaljems.com/cart/bobbin.htm
  17. I tried that, and ran into those exact problems... I then went to the garage: open the door, get a fan and/or a dehumidifier, lay down some newspaper, and you're set to go.
  18. it depends on how much you want to make on your own.
  19. Just did the same thing myself, but do yourself a favor: for $4, you can get a 5 oz. can of paint. For $5, you can get 11 oz.
