  1. Thank you... that's what I was hoping to hear because I got the body cut out today but it is a few incraments off from being 1 3/4" thick so could I use plywood for the bottom? Does it even matter if the thickness is a few incraments off from being 1 3/4" thick??
  2. I've seen it mentioned that pine is not OK for a guitar body but I have only pine and some oak and money is short so could I use pine for a solidbody? And I just got an S101 neck my Dad got me off of Ebay and what size(length) should the neck pocket be?? Should it be the same length as the heel of the S101 neck??
  3. Milliput is a two-part epoxy putty from England. Use it for sculpting, gap-filling, and scratch-building. One of the definitive mediums of many top sculptors. Magic Sculp is a two-part epoxy putty specifically designed to meet the needs of modelers, crafters and sculptors alike. Its grain structure is finer than any other product available and will not shrink or crack even when formed in large structures. It can be shaped by hand or with modeling tools, sanded, carved, painted; you can attack it with a grinding tool and the cured material will not break apart or loose its shape. Magic Sculp will cure at room temperature. Celluclay Instant Papier Maché The original papier mache. Simple to prepare - just add water. Requires no firing. Air dries into a stronge hard permanent material like wood. Adheres to almost any surface. Can be sanded, painted, sawed and nailed Uh, look at this.
  4. Fill it in with Milliput or some other form of epoxy putty. I use epoxy putty for my hobby of model military in 1/35 scale and I know that Milliput is dependable. You could look @ hobby shops and/or in hardware stores for it. But you could probably also use Durham water putty but that comes in a liquid form as Milliput comes out like clay but becomes rock solid in about 24 hours.
  5. I need to know the diameter of a Les Paul Toggle switch rear cover. I'm going to make one using the tutorial in the making bodys section.

  19. I might go look at music-go-round(retarded music store name) and see if they have any cheap used necks the next time I'm in Davenport , IA they have used pickups for $10 for a set of 2 so I might as well see if they also have cheap necks there as well. Music-go-round is kinda a music store/music pawn shop in the same building.
