  1. Anyone know how to get this level of metalflake without having to go to an automotive paint shop? Keith
  2. This is gonna sound stupid........ what do you mean that supports the JB neck theory?
  3. In the pictures of Washburn's SS model , the pickup in the neck position has the adjustable poles toward the neck as the bridge position has them toward the bridge. I guess this means the neck position is installed "backwards". Does the "direction" of the pickup change the sound? Keith
  4. Isn't Duncan's JB designed just as a bridge pickup? I don't know much about the workings of pickups......... I suppose a bridge pickup can be used in the neck position also? I have a guitar pick I got from Steve in 1984. ( he tossed it to me from the stage) I am thinking of maybe somehow inlaying the pick into one of my SS projects. Would that be a good idea or should I leave the pick in my scrapbook? My "Hamer SS" project will be much later down the road since my "Washburn SS" seems to be the easier of the two for me to reproduce at this time. Any feedback or comments from anyone is appreciated.......keep em coming. Keith
  5. I have come up with a Washburn Steve Stevens body. So for the washburn model I would only need the pickup models. Can you get into trouble for making exact copies for sale( including peghead shape etc) if the company no longer makes the guitar?
  6. I am planning a couple of projects based on Hamer's Steve Stevens model from 1984/85 and one on Washburns Steve Stevens model from the 90's. I have a few pictures of these two guitars but I cnt seem to locate any specs as far as pickup models, etc. Hamer & Washburn's sites have no info since they no longer manufacture these models. If anyone can help....it would be great. Thanks, Keith
  7. Has the body been sanded to the bare wood or just "roughed up" with sandpaper?
  8. Thanks. Oh..another question, can you get quilted veneer or does you supplier only have flamed? Thanks, Keith
  9. I have identified the body! It's a Washburn. Take a look. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...0&category=2384 The whole guitar is only worth $100 brand new! Keith
  10. Awesome job! It turned out a heck of alot better than my kit project. Keith
  11. Guess it woulb be a safe bet to not purchse this body.
  12. In your veneer tutorial you said that the venner may bubble and seperate from the body when you stain it. Would it be possible to stain and seal the veneer sheets and allow them to dry before applying them to the guitar? Thanks. Keith
  13. I think it might be a copy..... not sure thats why I threw the pics up for some help. The body is on ebay for $75 but if its just a copy, is that too much to pay? The bodys i listed as a "Strat style" body so the seller probably doesnt know either. Any other opinions are appreciated. Keith
  14. I dont mean to sound dumb. but Is the body in these pics an Ibanez, and if so what model? ( I am not too familiar with the I banez family) Thanks, Keith
  15. Isnt there a tutorial on this site for adding a monkey grip to an ibanez body? I cant seem to find it. Thanks, Keith
  16. What type of guitar neck are you looking for?
  17. I am in search of an RG series body (h-s-h routing). I dont have a whole lot of cash so be gentl.....LOL Keith
  18. The neck won't be for a guitar...I am building a solid body electric mandolin. The neck I need will be maple with an ebony fingerboard. The dimensions as follows: Bolt on like an electric guitar It will be a four stringer instead of the standard 8 Scale: 13 7/8 (standard mandolin scale) 22 frets Length from nut to heel : 10 inches Width: 2 inches at heel tapering to 1 1/2 inches at the nut Peghead: 4 string (shaped like Ibanez JEM) If you are interested in making this neck, let me know. Keith
  19. Does anyone here make custom guitar necks? If so, drop me a line. I have a project for you if you are interested. Keith
  20. Extremely rare. I want to build an electric mandolin myself, but you can't just run out and buy an electric mandolin neck....LOL. Does anyone here make custom necks? Maybe I could pay someone to make one for me. Keith
  21. That would be great! Drop me an email and we will discuss it from there. keithkeever@bellsouth.net
