not really shure..but i was thinking of something like 15 - 70. more or less. i can of course use a normal guitar bridge, but i want a little bit (not much) wider spacing.

I want to build a 32", 6 string bassguitar, with string spacing more like a guitar than a 6 string bass. I cant find a bridge? Can anyone help me?

Put them on a guitar, then play that guitar for some years..voila!

I want to bulid a bass with 3 jazz pups...like a strat. Any reasons why thats not more common?

Try black limba. Soundwise its close to mahogany..and it looks great.

i have built one baritone with walnut body and wenge/ebony neck. Sounds great! ..and its lovely to work with. Use a good mask..i have heard some bad things about walnut dust.

Go for it!

well.. i really like the heels on necktroughs, they are comfortable and looks good. I wanted to make a heel like that. No other reason really..

ok, sory...i want it to be a set neck

Im thinking og gluing a neck to my guitar and kind of make it a "neck trough"..

Any reasons why i should not?

Im not shure if i see the need of locking tuners on a bass..but anyway, Guitarwhorkshop (Oslo, Norway) used to have locking tuners on their basses, during the eighties. I belive the had the patent as well. Unfortunately GW do not exist anymore.

Grain filler and true oil..? Sounds nice I really like the feel of true oil. But, do i have to put on new layers every year ( or so..) ?

Im building a walnut guitar. do i have to use grain filler? I dont mind having the pores there and im only going to give it a couple of layers of clear ..something..for protection. Will not using filler affect the tone of the guitar...?

What a nice guitar!

I would have prefered black tuners..

Very interesting.

Thats what it costs to live in Norway Al

Does anyone know why Fender makes sooo many holes in the neck cavity on their guitars? I thought they where only to be found on Squires, but even on my 3000$ strat there are 3 holes that doesent seem to have any function at all...

I salute you for doing something original!

You should check out what youre favorit bass players use..you may not sound (you should not like em anyway, but that would be the best reference point i think.

There is no right or wrong ..Steve Harris use a p-bass with flatwound strings..! Does that sound like the bass to choose for the "biggest" metal bass player in the world?

Im thinking of installing one of the emg eq systems on my bass. I have the p/j emg set on. Does this eq system actually add something to the pups...? or can i do the same thing on my amp?

Yes i have a locking nut.

The trem is not old so i belive its in good condition. the strings i have on it now is..4 days old.

I have tuned the guitar down to E flat, without intonating it :/ could that be part of my problem..?

I have a guitar with a Ibanez lo pro edge. I really like the tremolo, but after a couple of dive bombs, the guitar is useless (more or less) Please help me! Would a tremsetter help?

Well... as I already mentioned on page one, except for his true vintage "I don't wanna mess with this" guitars, he actually uses medium-output humbucking single-coil replacements.

I have tried to tune my strat down to c, but for me it didnt work out really well (even with heavy strings) why dont you buy a baritone neck from warmoth?

...can you intonate a sg tuned down to c?

Heck look at Ywngie, he plays on a Strat, but uses high output humbuckers.

He uses low output singlecols.
