  1. It shouldn't get any worse, cause it already is. Everything is in basswood. THings are done too quickly and lots of holes are often offset etc...SO they shold introduce new woods like mahogany and take more care into their kits. Otherwise I wouln't mind paying an extra $100 if that happens.
  2. your not westheman right? just checking...thought he cut his internet connection half a year ago.
  3. The hot wire is basically the wire that the magnetic pickup is going to send out into watever wiring you have and out through the jack. The ground is like other grounds in circuitry to be soldered best in this case on the guitar shieding or the back of the pots. I am not experienced well and not 100% sure on how to explain. The best person here is someone like psw or paul marrossy. This is their section. PM them.
  4. very sexy indeed. But I cut the singlecut now. Too many decisions. I shrunk my original icefly, by 1cm on each end, changed the iceman horn and its going to CNC hopefully tmr. Sorry guys, always rushing here and there. But this body has to be done and buffed up by wednesday morning lol.
  5. I used compressed air as well, 40 pounds pressure usually
  6. For me, I just turn any 3D graphical or CAD drawings into stereo lineorgraphy.
  7. however, it can't qualify for oeiginality which is what i'm after for lol
  8. Actually, I loved your wenge #2. Although I dislike the shape (like a demented milk dud), I enjoyed your close attention to detail and research behind all this luthiery things.

  14. Go to sadowsky guitars in New York. http://www.sadowsky.com/ I'm sure they can offer some help.
  15. lol..nice touch stech....they should open a comittee or charity event for religious guitarist. THen we all get free customs. But who wants them anyways, if they're good then i'd rip them up for parts and then build another guitar from there.
  16. Aya, aya, ma-fan.... You should learn enough be4 you diu the guitar into s**t la.... lol..jkjk....it looks fine, don't see any problems so far.
  17. haha very funny about the ormsby. But who cares, ormsby stuff is cool... I live in Happy Valley jeltoulo. You? I can get access to these machinery through my school hehe.
  18. Love your photography skills Godin. Btw, tom anderson are christian, so how much discount fo you get.....I know david crowder gets good deals. And do you realise that all the Warrior instruments are named from the bible?
  19. I have a pacifia 312MKII in transgreen on swamp ash strat style. MOdded with GFS pickups (excellent stuff).
  20. I can tell you like you 'godin SD', godin SD, by your username, Godin SD. lol. I took a look at warrior guitars, boy are they amazing! Are they chrisitan or sumthing cos bands such as steven curtis chapman gets endorsments lol. they made an acoustic model for PRS lol. Its only 6,000-12,000 bucks. ITs spare change..haha.. http://www.warriorinstruments.com/warrior....=price_acoustic
  21. YOu know it actually took me a whole day to get the joke. I wasn't too sure how a crotch looked like on a piece of wood. So I googled away in images and..you get the rest............too many crotches.
  22. I have never seen a veneer on a neck before. What you are referring to is the fretboard itself and that can be other known as the top laminate on the neck, however, veneers are very very thin sheets of materials used often for furniture to make them look nice of top of cheap woods. Veneers can reach up to 1/20" to 1/40... It is best to glue on the fretboard with the cut neck blank before doing anything. The link will show the build a neck page on the project guitar website. http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/neck.htm
  23. One day I will get myself one of these to be my pride and joy low tone!
  24. GOdins are pretty nice. The guy who built the icefly has other people like me using his design. ONe of which kept all except the parker horn and converted the top horn into a mockingbird horn. quite nice frankly, but can't find the picture. S**t!!!The gretsch duo jet. The father of all filterons. lol. However, I need something unique to get past my design technology teacher. Too bad he is a guitarist or else I could have used an existing design. At the very beginning, I wanted to build a tele, but straight away my teacher knew what it was, so no. But trying to design your own body is a nightmare if some of you know. French curves did not work neither. Argh, my fav singlecut besides the duo jet is the PRS singlcut. I am 60% sure on using the bottom horn of a PRS. but the top round single cut is too universal.... Edit: found the 'icemocker' link. http://www.xs4all.nl/~ghradema/lolafugas/web_ic~1.jpg
