  1. i thought about that stewmac calculator but it only has TOMs and strat hardtail (which it already has). it is a string through, so that may hel be lione it up a bit.
  2. i think it would be better if you cut wood to size and glued the wood into the cavities. if you rout into the fiberglass from the back the dust will go everywhere, its not good to breath in or apparently touch your skin for too long.
  3. hi folks, i just bought a used ibanez 7 string, im going to seriously fix up this guitar, wont be much stock left when i'm done, but for now i was going to buy a new bridge, i was thinking this one: http://www.hipshotproducts.com/cart.php?m=...ct_detail&p=170 (i know, no picture) its the hipshot hardtail in black and i was wondering, how many modifications will i have to make for this to fit correctly on my 7 string? i dont want to mess up the intonation or anything; this hardtail and the strat style hardtail that comes on it look nothing alike, but i dont know how the screws go so basically what i'm asking is, will this drop right in, or will i need the make new holes and such, if so how hard will it be to get them in the right spot? thanks, Chris
  4. i was wondering about the inotation calculatior aswell, i was wondering how to figure fanned frets/perfect scale length for each string
  5. i want to call him up and ask if he'll build me a PRS copy, with a AAAAA quilt top
  6. wait, wait this is the best part: "I learned that using unbalanced strings is the way to go and that its actually better if the strings all have inconsistent tension and the low E actually has less tension than most of the other strings. What was I thinking before?" EDIT: http://www.zacharyguitars.com/Idiots.htm this is hilarious! "hey man, Thanks for putting my mail on the idiot page. I just couldn't believe you had time to read all this "fan mail". I have a question for you. If you were to draft your guitar necks and bodies and have cnc machine cut them and put it all together would it still sound like a zack?. Or do you use voodoo magic to make them sound good?. Tell me is it the enchanted woods harvested from the ancient marhes of Gorormir ,sprinkled with elf juice squeezed from the phallus of virgin mugwamps while aged for centuries under the watchful eyes or one thousand serpents. Carved by the magic hands of the mystical wizard Alex?. Is that why people are totally bonkers about your guitars?..... well is it? "
  7. "Would you agree with me that every string on your guitar should have equal tension? In other words, each string should have exactly the same tension when tuned to pitch. Would you agree with me on that? No??? ...What do you mean NO? Are you nuts? For those who said no, you are idiots and should be on the PRS site looking at grossly quilted tops and drooling over them. That's where you belong, so stay there.." straight from the horse's mouth
  8. godin, are you talking about "Damn" as the D-word? because i'm pretty sure the rules for swearing are pretty much "if its on TV its ok" i might be and probably am wrong, but i thought i read that on the forum disclaimer somewhere. like you said, back on track, your guitar is looking great, i'll be looking forward to those additional pictures
  9. get a double neck, that'd be sweet
  10. It did buy him dinner, its only right...
  11. Me too. Maybe its for when people realize how much they overpayed for his guitars they cant find him. angry customer: I'm lookin' for Zachary! Alex: No idea where he is man, my name's alex...
  12. i didnt say ugly, i like the bright colors on the DNAs and other swirls and the lochness
  13. steve vai earlier in his career was just crying out for attention, notice before he switched to a nice,classy white guitar with gold hardware it was all like bright ,neon funkadelic colors
  14. yeah, the name of a guitar is pretty unoriginal....oh, crap if you change your name keep your avater for a while, just so we know who you are, good luck with the insperado.
  15. i am almost positive that is not a realy jem, for one the monkey grip is huge, 2 the knobs arent supposed to go over the side of the pickguard, 3 the shape isnt even right, the upper horn should be fatter and both horns should be bent in more EDIT: this is what a real flower print looks like http://members.tripod.com/gtrkev/guitars/JEM-BODY.JPG
  16. thats true, i did sleep in the day i missed the nice trippy colors though i am here for the orange/rust color its not bad but not as relaxing or welcoming as the blue.
  17. shameless plugs; priceless when did you venture into pedals Ormsby? and what do you have available?
  18. yeah its a veneer on the ones with inlay on the headstock, the jusk glue it on top then do the binding around it to hide the seam
  19. just out of curiosity (sp?) why did you go with the old heel design instead of the AAnJ? looking great by the way
  20. why am i NEVER here for the crazy colored skins or anyting, man i miss out
