How about making a mold, and injecting some kind of liquidy plastic material into it( like melted plastic in a tool) something like a glue gun kinda thing, then it hardens in the mold, that might work?
-
oh im sorry maiden :'( i was a noob when i 1st posted, i know better now, sorry about that, but i think this topic is very hot now and days, someone with a real good tutorial should post it up for good t ostay, pics on the forum, no links.

Does anyone know where i can get a reverse headstock neck?, exactly like the jackson one, with 22 fret's no sharkfin , only the 10 dots, preferably ebony fretboard or rosewood.. thanks
-
Oh i see lovekraft, i wasnt thinking about lining up the LED's that way, you dont think it will get crushed at all? youre smart, thanks alot man
-
So i think i may have this figured out, please correct me if im wrong with a better diagram to route/channel the wires, i saw one like this but it looks impractical, i made this one on my own kinda sucks but let me know.
-
mhmm thanks, i will try to get that book soon.
-
Thanks sounds good to me, i might not know all about wood work and all that but once i got my head set on a project i cant just leave it, cut me some slack huh?, but yea im not sure what color i wanna use i think maybe blue? and im riding my bike up to radioshack today
-
Thanks Jon ;-)

damn dude what youre talking is like freaking algebra or something man, i plan to use 10 LED lights, probably 1 or 2 mm, what power source can i use to make all of them run, they dont have to like pop bright, but just that its noticable, and what do i have to attach the LED lights to exactly? can someone like name all the parts i need, so maybe i can head to home depot or some electric store and purchase all the things i need? thanks
-
Hey, thanks for that, Bizzar_guitars the 1st link is a bit helpful, though i dont plan on replacing the fretboard, im going to try to keep that part simple, the pictures were good but idk if it was detailed enough, and some more pics would help too, also i didnt get in the 2nd link was, Source voltage, diode forward voltage, diode forward current , if someone could put that in english? thanks again for the help bizzare

Hey thanks alot lovekraft

Does anyone know how to wire LED lights, plus add the 9v battery as the power source? any tutorials, or pictures?
-
K well, i think i will result to use LED lights, some that can maybe change color with the push of a button maybe? or just any LED lights, does anyone have any idea how i could wire them? and how i could attach the 9v battery to the wire...? please help thanks
-
Any Tutorials??? please

Hey dude, damn is not like a bad word or i was cursing them or something, i was just saying it because tis damn far, lol thats all, sorry if i caused any offense.
-
k...well i just wasnt sure how it should be glued, but you guys definately cleared it up for me, thanks, oh and my dad is a carpenter btw, but he doesnt speak english well...so yea but thanks alot i get it now. , any idea where i can get a picture of actual size pickup template for a humbucker, i plan to have one EMG in there, i think one humbucker would be fine.
-
Thing is i dont know how to get a whole LED setup, like wit hpower module, plus the fiber optics can change to a color if you want, what i think i can do is put relfective tape around the inlay hole on the very inside along the wall of the hole, then run the optic cable to the hole so it relfects off the sides and out...?
-
well glueing it side to side would give me more room to work with, and i dont think that 1 piece of wood is deep enough to build a guitar, because theyre pretty thin but i might be wrong, so ppl keep the posts comming :-)
-
Hmm, do you mean like line the fretboard underside with some metal reflective tape, that could work, the thing is idk if the fiberoptics give off that much light, but i mean if anyone thinks i can get the fiber optics to bend upwards let me know, i dont have any parts yet, but im working on getting my neck and the fiber optics soon.
-
Hmm sorry im still a little confused as to what way you glue the wood, lets say i have 2 pieces of mahogany layed out flat on the ground next to eachother, would i apply glue on the side and push them together(which i dont think so) or would i stack one of them on the other and apply the glue in the middle of the 2? sorry guys, i just dont know much n the technical terms, im just a guy with some big ideas in mind , thanks.
-
Hey, thanks for trying with that link man, but unfortunately it didnt work, i found this site that has a kit of fiber optics for the fret, which is amazing, and you can change the colors of it too, you get 4 colors, all you do is flip the switch around http://www.fiberopticproducts.com/Guitar_frets.htm its pretty amazing but, it only shows the lights being put on the side markers and i want it on the face of the fretboard, that would be possible right? once again if any links or pics post e mup, thanks
-
Well heres another one for you guys, once again im new to this forum so hi all i was thinking about taking the fretboard off of the neck and putting LED lights in the position markers myself, now the thing is where can i buy the LED lights, how to wire them? i know a site that does it for you, but its in the damn UK, im in the US, FL. shipping my neck or guitar off would be alot of money, plus another $600 the ycharge you for the LED's and instalation, if anyone has any idea links etc, please post, thanks alot.

Hi guys, im new to this forum and to the world of guitar making, designing, i already got a design drawn in my notebook, and have read up abit on how to put a guitar together, i am buying a neck, and wanna make a custom body, now ive seen pictures of people glueing the wood together, what way do you glue the wood? one on top of the other. or side by side? and what are the dimensions of wood size i should use to make my guitar, its going to be a fairly odd but small shape, if someone can just give me some good links or some decent pictures with description i would appretiate it highly, thanks alot.
