  1. Hello all I've run into a little problem and need some advice I've drilled the post holes for my TOM bridge and find the holes are slightly too big and the posts slop around in them Can I glue them in using a 2 pack epoxy glue or do I make a couple of dowels up, glue in and redrill the hole with a smaller bit? Will either of these ideas work?, or can some of you recommend a better/simpler remedy? When checking the size of the posts with a vernier their size was 11mm and I used an 11mm brad point drillbit to drill the holes Any suggestions? Thanx billtheboy
  2. Hey guys into file sharing and after some great Tab Books check out this site Guitar Trade
  3. I tacked this onto an existing post but got no answers, so Im starting my own, anyhow... Hi I'm new to the forum and I must say it is very informative I have a few questions on lacquers as I have seen some finishes I really like and wonder what product is used to achieve it. Have a look at this http://www.usmasters.com/finishes.htm Does anyone have any idea what clear finish these guys use? Showing my inexperience here but I was under the impression that all nitrocellulose laquers are slightly yellow and if so, wouldnt they slightly discolor the bright stains that are used underneath? The clearcoat on the US masters guitars looks water white clear, you know, no yellowy tinge So, can anyone advise me what to use? Im building an SG so the body and neck are mahogany thanx
