ooooooooook

now back to talking bout guitars

I for one have a query about what body wood gets the most twang out of a tele. I am a believer in the pickup + brige = 80% of the tele sound thang.

but just for the hell of it...

pine?

ash?

alder?

If you look close enough, and enlarge the photo like I had to, you can see

what is either the outline of fret tang or a slot that has been filled. (second fret)

And yes , I did squint.

ahh tricky little buger isent he

U will need to cover or "mask" the finished wood in tape.

im not sure if theres some kind of standard tape to use tho?

I havent actually played a zero fret nut

but i think its just a case of the open stringed notes sounding freted

and id say some people mite like that sound some mite not

It almost looks like a mechanical pickup. Meaning a slug inside a coil that vibrates freely while the coil is connected to the body.

Sonds about right to me

they shouldnt be that hard to replicate then?

yeah i got no idea what that blue liquid is. Onaly about 3 drops in there tho

sonds like it whold be cheeper to make then a regular pickup

i may be way off tho

ummm WOW

dose anyone know the theory behind the Taylor ES?

Development

Building the ES

How dose it work?

Can i make my own?

Thanks.

Hi there Mob

i whold try This place

for gear in aus

u in sydney?

hey nice avatar!

Why thank u

yours aint so bad either

Its a freakin t-shirt you uppety punk. You wear them dont you? I figured you might want to wear something cool for a change besides your goodwill rejects. Sorry guys, I can see why some of you, (marksound) are stuck in the garage, and always will be.

Have a good one.

OMG bigest A-hole ever

I think any project is only as good as the parts you use.

If it was me, I'd wait a while longer and have me the real deal.

( I'd probably even sell my body if I had to )

Good luck with it all.

selling my body no problem

I would drink less beer for a month and spend the money towards the OFR. You guitar will thank you for it.

DRINKING LESS BEER!!!!!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!!!

I love it

I absolutely love it

all done whith no measuring u say?

Why dont you use an original floyd rose instead of a licenced version

alas my bank account will not let me use a original floyd

so i have resorted to useing a very cheep eagle floyd rose that gose for about $90 AU

however i will be modifying this to have a dead flat radius and will most likely have a graph tech trem nut whith locking tuners as i cant seem to find a flat locking nut?

i woldent bother going to 1000 grit 400 will suffice, i find that the paint grips better whith 400 grit anywho

hey and if u like the epi gothic searise man u shold check out the gibson voodoo

much cooler

OMG BTW that digital prediction looks FREAKIN SWEET

has anyone ever used grafted walnut?

i am a extremely huge fan of how this wood looks

any info on it whold be much appreciated

If u have any problems just email me the file id be happey to scale it for you

Hi guys

i was just browsing thro the fender japan catalog and i noticed that alot of there guitars are now made of a wood called "sen" it looks alot like ash actually but i was wondering if it acualy sonds anything like ash and whether or not it weighs the same

anyone worked whith it before?

Is this one painted by mr roman

as much as i hate ed... I WHANT THAT DAM GUITAR!!!1

SAME HERE TOO BIG

How many springs u got holding that trem back there

It was all done in a freeware IMSI turbo cad

goto file/print then click on page setup

make shure your set the scale to 1:1

under printer paper :

enter the size of the paper your printer uses (A4, A5, A3 )

under drawing sheet size:

enter the size of the actual drawing, mine was about 310 x 450 mm

click ok, then print

thats how it was for me in IMSA turbo CAD 2D

now there is a gap of about 2mm between each page when u tape them together so u will have to cut that 2 mm off

my guitar bodey was about 4 pages

Its definitely a strat trem ive just never seen a pickup rout go thro into the spring route before

ahh well spose theres nouthing whrong whith it

Looking good man

i dont think ive ever seen anyone do a SG qwite like that one

Hey whats whith the tele on the right?

the brige pup rout gose right thro the bodey?

I apologize for my spelling RGGR i dident think it was that bad but obviously it has disturbed u so i am sorry

Those black marks are actually black paint I spillet on accidentally, its all sanded of now

The template i used for cuting the body was from a Jem bodey .dwg file i got from this website, which i printed out on 4 pages from my desktop printer and stuck together not the most accurate method i know so i was a bit off in the meshurments

plus im not exacaly a wizz whith a jig saw (it was the first time i had uesed one)

but i have fond a plan printing service now so i shant be haveing that prob againg

hardware color shal be black

peace out

Dont know about that one

why dont u try this method

custom logo

That guitar is soooo yumy soooo creamy

love the tortoise shell

Dam dude what did u buy?

ive ben thinking about geting the Erlewine's Fretting Series

u must tell me if there any good
