Aha. I see. I saw the first picture and immediately thought LED inlays!!

Thx for the info. Still a good deal $20.

I once tried to look for the same thing.

I don't own a set, although maybe near future, but here's a website that might help you.

It's a schematic.

http://emginc.com/downloads/wiringdiagrams/ZWset.pdf

The 3rd page has the 2Volumes/2Tones and the 4th page has the 1V/1T and 2V/1T

Hope that helps. I'm not much of a mechanic.. or anything at all

Can you tell us more about it?

I read the page, but it seems kinda unclear, or I can't understand it too well.

So does it include all the fret markers and side fret markers?

Also, in what way is it "easy"? Don't you have to groove out all the channels? How (well) does the fret markers sit on the fingerboard?

Oh and on the page it says.. 1 - 5mm ("Insert Color"), what are those?? Radius of the fret marker??

Sorry for the long question, but I would like to buy 1 as well before the price goes up.

Also, does it come with *full instructions? I guess yes, because that would explain why they haven't finished the tutorial.

One possible solution was to get another fretboard, and start again, or alternately move the bridge back 3/4". So I decided on the latter. First stud came off quite easy, the second... pulled off a 2" chunck of black paint.

I'm guessing you either sacrificed your intonation for less time, or you didn't know that making a 25.5" 3/4" shorter does not make it a 24.75" scale. The frets location will be relatively off = bad intonation = bad playability especially in the higher frets.

P.S. I love your garden. Even though we may be looking at a small section, it's beautiful.

For your RG570, where did you get the neck from? And is it a 25.5" scale?

I like the finish, but I'm concerned if the guitars play as well as they look.

This is for you English project?!?!?

Anywho, I love the design, how about White with a little hint of age.. I forgot the name.. I dunno about bursts..

Did you get your wood from a hardwood flooring centre??? Wassup with the pine/poplar?

Thx for the info GregP

Just out of curiousity, is this why fanned frets exist??

My brother has "perfect pitch" which means he can hear a note and tell which note it is.. It's pretty amazing.

It's pure intuition, but funny thing is he absolutely HATES notes that are out of tune. It's not obsession.. it's more of a sensitivity "issue" (well.. not really an issue). Telling if the intonation is off or not is a lot easier and some people have it, some people don't.

I have yet to learn the physics behind this, does anyone have a link that explains how intonation physics work?

This is a cool topic.

Does anybody know when FloydRose put "Floyd Rose Original" and when "Floyd Rose" on their tremolos?

I'm assuming they're all originals, but with different production years? "Floyd Rose" seems to have come later

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/roadshow/ser...ts_hour2_1.html

"It's a well-known fact that [in 1959] they dispensed with penciling in the dates," Kerry explains. "They went to a rubber stamp in 1960. Why? Well, there was rumor that there was a guy at the end of the production line and he was penciling in not the dates but profanity, and then bolting the necks together. Leo Fender heard about it, and said, 'Okay, you guys, no more writing the dates in pencils.'"

funny. I wish I had one of 'em '59 necks..

Wicked! So what do you call this? It sounds like a whammy pedal with distortion.. I've seen Satriani use a similar effect on the G3 Tokyo and the bassist from VanHalen.

Tre Cool!

I don't know about that..

I think as long as you have a decent firewall and don't go surfing on porn sites/hack download sites/ and those spam e-mails, you'll probably be safe..

I do all of them jk. haha

I've never understood why people burn their guitars...

You mean like Hendrix?

He burns his guitars too.. but more than this RG

I don't mind burns, it actually looks a lot better in person.

Does anyone know where I can buy a Floyd Rose Arm insert found on the bridge? Mine is chipped off a little.. well.. it's rather large.. I think I would want to replace it..

So the hole/insert where the whammy bar goes into. This is for Original Floyd Rose btw..

Cool. 1 question, are those marks -> more sanding to do? or -> burnt wood as like the JEM??

Mozilla Firefox seems to be taking over. Very neat browser at that and much more stable than IE imo.

It could be a 60s Teisco??

The link doesn't work..

I c...

If I remember correctly, wasn't that what Litch(sp?)'s tutorial said? I remember reading this on the "How to make a skunkstripe"

But the skunk stripe doesnt reach all the way from the head to the heel..? Does it?

So how do they put it in..?

modded mustang?

EDIT: oops.. I meant Jag..

That pic looks very artistic

Do you always carve using (finger) planers??

Floyd Rose! Floyd Rose! Love 'em Floyd Rose's!

Sorry to hear about those shellacs..

Btw, is this a 24.75" scale?

Make it out of wood then spray some metallic paint on it.. Or stain it with your blood..

There's some paint which makes it look 'machined'

I'm guessing if the tuning keys are this detailed and specific, the guitar must be made out of Satan himself??

You could always just make your own tuning knobs out of wood, and paint them.. Take the old ones out.. and customize 'em..
