  1. Oh, I meant just try that to get a feel for it... to see if it'd even be worth building a 24" scaled guitar.
  2. I believe warmoth offers those woods in their neck/bodies, well maybe not Bolivian rosewood but other rosewoods or Cocobolo. You can read their website for descriptions for the woods... to see what'd impart "a dark tone with good sustain". Good luck and post pics when you're done!
  3. Have you seen member Myka Guitars' post? http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=7054 Nice wood choices there if you ask me!
  4. Oh, regarding the 24" scale, you can put a capo on the first fret of a 25.5" scale guitar and tune 1/2 step down to get the feel of the 24" scale (close enough anyway .)
  5. Hmm... I just tried playing sitting down, on both right leg and left (classical style.) It seems I shift positions of the neck depending on position. If I'm playing near the nut the neck is up close to my face for example, in fact I seem to shift the guitar from left/right legs while playing the different registers... and I don't seem to feel any discomfort. Have you tried wearing the guitar on a strap when playing seated? I mean set up short so it's still hanging while sitting.
  6. You should make note that it requires the DivX5 codec to view... Heh, I guess I just did .
  7. Should you be using acid core solder on electronics?!?! Edit: Look here: http://www.usahardware.com/inet/shop/item/...older/82516.htm Use rosin core for electronics.
  8. Yeah, I believe so... but I don't know if they're different now from 90-91.
  9. Old forgotten thread resurrected! Yeah, such a tutorial would be nice Litch!
  10. Heh, I'm still using a Floyd II that I bought in '90 (or '91 .) Still no problems with it .
  11. Here's the thread Brian mentioned: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=6839 for your convenience .

    There was a discussion of "Crazy Train" (Ozzy) a while back. That song and solo are pretty easy.
  13. Yeah, I've played Squires that I thought were great! Very good values. I'm curious how many different ones you have played to conclude that they all "never play well"?
  14. I especially liked how you leeched the stain out of the wood .
  15. Cambered? Do you mean something like the Novax?
  16. The "RotoSound Steve Harris Signature" set are flatwound.

    Gold floyd

    You could shim it if it doesn't sell, I suppose

    It might be helpful to say what style of music you'd like to play. Country? Jazz? Blues?
  19. Oh yeah, that's right! I remember why I didn't d/l them... that website is soooo slow . Ugh, it's 1.6KB/s now
