Sweet work Jer, As always, Althou the guy who's commissioned it had better have deep pockets, I'd imagine repairing or touching it up won't be an easy task

Rob

Hey I am in now way interested in getting the kid or anything else from him, but I simply think it is a great deal. For the money he wants for the whole kit you usually get a couple of PU's or something like that.

If it's actually Ibanez stuff he's selling, I'm doutbfull it's Ibanez stuff he's selling, And if it is, It'll be cheap end stuff ... Call me suspicous but i just dont trust the short stop

Rob

That is one sweeeet piece of work, man.. Kudos to your wife for the artwork...

Thanks dude, Althou she did'nt draw this one, But one i'm getting ready for her artistic talent

Keep your eyes open for it sometime in the future

Rob

Sweet work Bro, Gives me an Idea

Rock on Dude

Rob

Actuall comic pages from "penthouse comixx" it's hard to get right but worth it, The wife is the artist and she's doing a sketch type strat body for me when she gets a chance , Should be cool

Rob

SO Here she is for you to pass opinion on

Oh, The body was routed by Brian, Purchased off Cerealk and Crazily finished by Moi, Been about a bit ... heh

Rob

i'll come, You paying Seriously tho, i'm sure it'll be great again this year, i am personally looking forward to Jemfest UK

Goodluck guys, ANd i hope the review's as good as ever

Rob

I'm gonna enter my rg7 custom, I know it'll get no votes coz the other works are fantastic, But hey It's all good fun

And

Specs :

Universe Neck, Blaze Pickups and black hardware, Body binding is black/white/black 3 ply and veneered top is trans ceder stain, Back and sides are black to match and keep in line with the headstock, the middle s/coil i had to route free hand which is why it's a little differant to the standard ibanez s/coil shape

The top is my 2nd ever and my first go at binding, I'm happy with it and it looks stunning in the flesh

Good luck everyone

Rob

i think a pgm would be overkill

and is it the FLO that has the funky fretwork on it? what exactly is it for?

fret wave, the wavy frets (first 2) are for tuning/intonation issues with e and a chords etc ... Flo also has a vwh neck back on her and no fret wave installed

Rob

rg550 is probably the best base to use, Hell i've used a few 560's too, the one advantage with a 550 is it's already front routed

Rob

Seriously interested in the edge trem,Possibly pickups, What would you consider for trade? I need that trem

catch me here or khracing@yahoo.co.uk

Cheers

Rob

Kevan that's great news, I'll just buy one or two internationally, I know plenty of folks who would ship them for me

I hope it's all going/gone smoothly, And as i said before, I think it's a great idea

Rob

Very nice ! I am craving to play a 7 string, I have a bass to do now , but next absolutely I'll try a 7 string....what brand and model pickups did u set up ?

dimarzio Evo7 (bridge) blaze single (middle) and blaze (neck) i use this set-up on all my 7's, and don't see me changing anytime soon

Rob

Actually, Thats probably the only pic of my wife i can use as an avatar without breaking laws in several contries 

Rob

pic tease

heh heh, seriously, the wife would kill me, but they are very and would make most peeps

me so lucky

Rob

Actually, Thats probably the only pic of my wife i can use as an avatar without breaking laws in several contries

Rob

Keep up the good work

Rob

Rob

Sweet work

Rob

Neck is a UV7BK neck Mmmm Pyramids

It's wet sanded and ready for another coat tomorrow and the back doing

Rob

Well she's getting there, Slowly but surely, i'm hoping to have it finished and enter in the GOTM compo, do ya reckon it'll be good enough ?

Comments always welcome

Rob

Alex, the binding channel all round was cut with a knife, not ideal but my router went down, i adapted a sharp knife with a block to give me a uniform cut

Rob

i'll go the route of the friendly critic, your center or joint line up the middle of the guitar looks a little messy, either that or the stain just affected the ends of the veneer/top?

i Know dude, I had to lift and relay it it was originally clamped for 4 days, but something went horribly wrong and it did'nt set (the glue) of course the glue being wet shrunk the veneer slightly hence the binding (thanks Jer)

It my first veneer job gone wrong, typically on the only guitar i'm keeping

I had thought of running some of the binding material down the center line, but it just looked "wrong"

I'm hopefull,with a few more coats of laquer it'll dissapear a little bit.

Thanks again for your comments

Rob
