    http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=04...ase_pid/361451/ there's a link to them and they are in gold. Just let me know. oh sorry... Don't like gold hardware. Maybe someone else willl be interested.
  2. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    can you post a link to them? what color are they? Maybe someone might wanna buy them off of you, and you can order the right ones? In short, i'm looking for 3+3 locking tuners for my next project .
  3. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    well we'll see how the auction for a set of EMGs goes in 2days. If I can get those ~$50, i'ma get those. If I can't..i'll prolly take ur auction there...or one like it.

    as far as i know There's only limited strings,made by floyd. and only 25.5" scale. So if u use a non standard string guage (ie 10-52 like me) ur SOL. at least that was a couple of years ago when they came out.
  5. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    search on google for GuitarNuts. It discusses shielding very well.
  6. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    Anyone have a set of 3 cheap single coils? Gonna make my Strat playable...but don't wanna spend a lot of money. preferabbly w/ the controls too...but if not..thats aight. Anyone?
  7. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    Well. 1) He admitted to saying he doesn't know much about how to do the neck stuff 2) Assuming he DOESN'T know, when he finds out about all the radiusing, fret leveling, planing, routing for inlays, etc etc...he'll probably think twice about making a neck for the 1st time out. I know I did. But whatever. His money and time. Good luck.
  8. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    if its gonna be neck through. Might I suggest just buying a premade neckthru neck like the one at Carvin? http://carvinguitars.com/products/part.php...?ItemNumber=NT6 Unless you want some custom stuff like inlays/woods. Otherwise, you'll have to make it.
  9. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    can you post a pic of the guitar you wanna make?
  10. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    actually ESP was already taken care of. Ever wonder why they don't offer the Hetfield signature explorer anymore? And for a while it was the gay new one or whatevr it was called.
  11. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    nah theres a Gibson V w/ a tribal design on guitarbuild.com http://www.guitarbuild.com/modules/mydownl...visit.php?lid=9
  12. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    there is one i've seen at guitarbuild.com
  13. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    you can usually get a "Pictures on Disk" at most places for a couple of extra bucks. They give you either a floppy(same day/nextday) or a CDR (3+ days).
  14. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    or you can prevent ground loops and use a star point grounding. search for GuitarNuts. It talks about wiring a Strat for least hum possible. It talks about star grouding. Basically, all grounds go to one point, then to shield. http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/shielding/shield3.php

    but the PRS SingleCut seems smaller and lighter. And I was recently told that it was indeed smaller and lighter.
  16. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    http://home.rgv.rr.com/kingv1474/PRSSingleCut.dxf Did it last nite: recessed Wilkinson trem 22fret 25.5" scale whenever I get around to building it: Mahogony body Maple neck, ebony fretboard graphite nut locking tuners preferablly that satin chrome hardware.i dont really like all chrome. I just don't know where to put the bridge hum really. The controls are there...don't know if I like 'em though. Can someone check it and make sure I did it right?
  17. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    its just like recessing a floyd etc. Just route out a section around the bridge by a few mms. This lets gives you a bit more room to go up and down, and keeps you from having to use an angled neck pocket. I know someone here made a V w/ a recessed TOM. may have to search for it though. i'll see if i can find it. http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...318&hl=recessed
  18. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    I'd like to reiterate the route depth thingy... I routed for a flattop section..then decided i wanted carved top......well...as i was carving.....well...it wasn't pretty...so..not pretty that i ruined that body (thankfully it was free). SO if ur gonna carve top/archtop....make sure u calculate properly ...
  19. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    or you could just recess the bridge.. thats what I'd do....
  20. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    i'd think make a template of ur neck pocket w/ one side flat to lay on the guitar...and the other side have the 1 degree angle on it.... so as you route...the router goes down w/ the angle of the template ? how to do that..is good question
  21. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    nice. i love the look of wilkinsons can't wait to make a guitar with them. I love that carving. What kinda wood? Alder? Old Jackson neck?
  22. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    why not ask people around here? I know some people here make fine instruments and what not. Maybe you can commission them? What kidna guitar did you want? www.rampartguitars.com is relatively cheap.
  23. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    what ebay guy? I have a set...but from an ebay guy. Show me the link to this 'ebay guy' and i'll tell you if mine are probably better, the same, or worse. :-D
  24. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    i just use that sanding disc drill attatchment... but i'm using alder....not maple
  25. YDoesGodMockMeSo
    Do you know if EMGs have some sort of lifetime warranty? The prongs on the back of one of my81s broke ...i had to resolder them back on :-D and...the solder doesn't hold very well there.
