A buddy of mine who builds antique furniture was telling me about a device called a "Duplicarver Machine" From what I understand this is a also known as a Pantograph Router This a very low tech but effective concept. Apparently you can accurately duplicate any 3D object I guess the way it works is that you guide a stylus over your original master and it removes the excess stock from your duplicate So, in theory, you could make exact copies of any type of Guitar body, neck, headstock, etc Has anyone heard of this or used it? I would be interested in hearing about your experiences Thanks Dave

I have been hearing quite a bit regarding the use of lasers for inlay techniques From what I understand, it is relatively easy & posibilities are limitless So much so that you can scan a image & have an exact copy done It sounds too good to be true Can anyone shed some light on this subject? Dave

O.K...... I may be getting in over my head, but I wanted to get your feedback A pal of mine is a cabinet maker that just ordered a 20 inch planer I have access to a KILLER flame bookmatched maple set He has an old "beat to hell" les Paul (not so old that it is vintage, It's an 85) I am thinking if I planed down the top of the les paul, I could add the flame maple top & carve the top to make one AWESOME looking Les Paul The only problem is...how do I remove the "set neck"? Anyone have any ideas or tips? Dave

It all depends on your definition of "Screaming Metal!!!" Us old-timers, who used to play in the 80's would tell you that the JB is the way to go That was what ALL the 80's metal guys played (59 in the Neck....JB in the bridge!!!) It was standard equipment for the Lynch, Demartini, & other 80's Shred guys! Dave K
