  2. Hey there. Working on #2 and I have a cover plate for the Les Paul control cavity but it has quite a strange shape to it...so it will not be easy to measure. does anyone have the real dimensions or a file or link they can send me to. thanks! d
  3. I'm getting inspired...! I'm new to this guitar building but I can see it will be an addictive hobby. Looks awesome! Carved tops here I come!!!
  4. I've been enjoying all the comments. I have attached pictures of the guitar with the inside of the catseye painted black...per comments. Looks much cleaner now. I've also given it a name. "Surfsedge" This fits the theme. enjoy the pics! http://photoshare.shaw.ca/view.php?VEID=47...oURI&mesg=1 D

  6. they sure are GFS humbuckers. They sound awesome. I just ordered another pair of GFS for my next guitar. I ordered the ones with a chrome outer shell and white pearloid inner area. The GFS pickups are very affordable and sound great...! Thanks for your comments! they sure are GFS humbuckers. They sound awesome. I just ordered another pair of GFS for my next guitar.

  7. You dont like the F-hole or is it the rubbing compound inside that you noticed? I've always liked the catseye F-hole design. Thanks for your comment!
  8. http://photoshare.shaw.ca/view.php?VEID=47...plGI&mesg=1 I have been visiting this website and following the tutorials. It's been a great help. Here is my first guitar project. It was built for under $500. I used basic tools and finished it in an orange craft dye and laquer from a spray bomb. The neck was from eBay and the other parts came from Stewmac and others. Couldnt get the StewMac dye and finishing materials as they won't ship to Canada! I had to improvise and use local materials...which by the way...cost way less. Please comment and let me know what you think! Cheers, d
