    i think lp's are 17.25" long bottom is about 12.5" waist is about 7" and top part is about 9" here are a couple of really good links on making the arch and alround build of a lp http://www.geocities.com/keithgregg1946/page3.html http://members.fortunecity.com/jtfish/lpc/cvr/cover.htm hope this helps u but lps dont have to be that think the one im making now is gonna be a little less then 1.5"thick i love lp shapes but i hate how heavey the darn things are

  9. Davis guitars
    how much for the padauk not slotted?
  10. Davis guitars
    you may be able to find 1 problem is it may not have the inlay u want and may cost $300 or more ud have to check
  11. Davis guitars
    yeah they are pre inlayed and pre slotted the only difficult thing is finding 1 in the scalelenght u want and radius good thing is its only 30$ and u can get neck blanks for around that 2 (depending on wood) but for the inlays alone may cost 50$ and the fret board mabey another 30 depneding on typ of wood
  12. Davis guitars
    i have no clue to tell u they truth never gottn one but the tools u need for inlay are alot unless u do every thing with a set of hobby knivzes

    heres a ebay fret board http://cgi.ebay.com/IBANEZ-JACKSON-STYLE-F...VQQcmdZViewItem
  15. Davis guitars
    do u want a set neck, bolt-on or thru? id go with a mahagony for a setneck, maple with wenge laminate for a bolt on, and pretty much what ever ud want with the thru
  16. Davis guitars
    well i cant find the page so ill just tell u some of the woods u can use : pauduk (spelling?) koa spruse maple mahagony ash poplar zebra alder redwood lacewood purple heart walnut rosewood some cherry basswood bubinga white limba cocoba wenge cedar fir snakewood sycamore ziricote
  17. Davis guitars
    it all depends on what u want theres a post on here about differnt types of woods ill see if i can find it and link u 2 it
  18. Davis guitars
    hmm what style of jackson ? like the rr 6 on one side?
  19. Davis guitars
    it depends what u want to make the neck out of it may be cheaper the buy a neck blank and a preinlayd/fretted fret board off of ebay iv seen them go for 50-150 fretting takes a lot of patience (spelling?) work and tools same with some inlaying tools... all depends just give us some details u want on the neck
  20. Davis guitars
