  1. For my 7 string project ive cheated on the neck by using the 1 off a cheap Aria Mac50 7 string i got Big Tom
  2. the 1,3 and 5 positions on my Fender Mex Strat do the same so its compleatly normal.
  3. I just got their catalogue this weekend (craft-supplies) and the prices are awsome... and have a good range of wood. it also comes with a sheet telling you about how good the wood is to work with and what tonal qualities they have. e.g. Padauk Another great wood often overlooked, it can produce great sounding guitars. Care when bending is needed, but otherwise a lovely material to work with I found these guys great. Big Tom

  6. Ive been playing with the idea of hidden pickups and thought of using plastic covers, ive tested it and putting anything Wood/plastic over it makes very little difference. The only problem is playing it would be pretty hard as there is no room under the strings if you want the pickups to work properly... Big Tom P.S. yes im back and finally i can afford to make my guitar Woohoo go me! will post info as i start making... just gotta wait 4 the wood to arrive and get my final designs done and will probably come asking for help when something goes horribly wrong....
