I need help with a 7 string RG or JEM. I am making a 7 string RG/Jem and I need help with the width of the nut and a width at the 12th fret or the heel. I Am going to us that same body as my RG 350 that I own but I just need the measurements of the width of the neck at the nut and the 12th fret. Also the length of the headstock would be nice to.

So… if any one has a 7 string JEM or RG lying around I would greatly appreciate the measurements.

Or if you have any other pointers before I undertake this project

Thx Jeff

Hello,

I was thinking of making a 6 or 7 string JEM and I was wondering if the JEM has exactly the same body as and RG??? (I own one so if it was it would be a good help). And I was thinking of doing an African mahogany body with a flamed maple top. I also would like to no if anyone had measurements for a JEM 7 string neck joint. Or by any chance know of a tutorial of a JEM 7 string or 6 string being built. Of course plns would be nice lol …

Thx a lot!

Yea thx fro the sugestions for doing the carve top but i was also wondering how u you can make a neck angle in with a tenon neck and how to do it and whats the right angle.

WOW thats a amazing how do your get that fiqure to stand out that much that is som major talent you have got there

Hey im about to build my 3 guitar and i was hoping to make my first carve top. Id relly like to make a carve top like a gibson or prs style. I was just hoping some one had some experence making carve tops an could share some measure ments fro a set neck and give me some plans to work off of. Id like to do every thing right tis time around and take my time and gett all the information i can on what i want to build. im only 15 so i dont have all the expereince most of you people have.

Thx

I need some help on the measurements and size of a les Paul. I also need help with how to build a les Paul carve top and if any one has plans and will supply me with a copy that would be greatly appreciated.

thx a lot

Oh and 1 other thing I will try to add some mp3's soon cant guarantee they will be great (I have a home recording thing so the will be ok quality) but the problem is I guess I’m not the greats guitar player only been playing for like 2 years or so ill do my best to make it sound ok. And form the looks of this site it sounds like everyone’s like some tech guy or some guy who makes a living with guitars lol

And ill put some more pics up of different angles if u people want

Yea I will post more pics when its finished but for now I’m looking on what’s the best way to do it. And I’m also starting on my ESP explorer copy.

And yea I used like the cheapest parts I could (except for saddles) so that if it sounded like crap I didn’t really lose too much money on the project.

And yea I need to cut off on the right side. At first I wasn’t going to use a pick guard then I did so it looks kind of weird now, but it will be fixed in a matter of days

And yes I used alder for the body and an alder laminated neck (sounds weird but it works and yea I got all the wood for free that’s why I use alder for every thing.

I spent $250 Canadian

The Prs headstock is there because I didn’t want a fender headstock I wanted some thing different

for the style of guitar and I have to admit the piece of wood wasn’t big enough for a 6 in line head stock

well this is my first guitar im only 15 and i use no pre fabricated parts its all hand done.

so what do u people think?

o! and yea it has no finish and needs lots of sanding
