  1. Hi, Would anyone one have dimensions or plans for this guitar? Thanks
  2. Nice thanks, thats not the one though. I have a slab that is 2.125" thick, was thinking about using this, and this pic I saw was incredable and it was not laminated to the best of my knowlege. Rob
  3. I found one site that had a BEAUTIFUL redwood electric solid body guitar (clear coated) I was looking for that pic. Thanks!
  4. Hi, would anyone have links to a few electric guitar makers such as thorn, I know there are a few out there just can't think of them. Thanks
  5. That schematic does not give you the full view so its a bit confusing, look at this site its so much better, keep in mind also some pups were not designed to be split three wire ones, others that are have 5 wires. diagram: http://www.guitarelectronics.com/product/WDUHH3T2206 look at another diagram all: http://www.guitarelectronics.com/category/...pickupdiagrams/ hope this helps! Rob
  6. i always put my left hand in my back pocket as a precaution. even better.
  7. You need an amp that rocks, two 12's are good very good but thats a loud amp too, unless you do two green backs at 30watts each and a master volume amp ...this all seems to be saying JCM800, something with a master volume though. For blues I have a real sweet spot for a Fender 5E7, but the JCM can do both. This type of amp kit would have three preamp tubes and two EL34 power tubes, its a kit that may be hard to do for a first time out and its a 50watter, but with a master you should be ok. Here is something you could build or buy if you wanted a project: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...;Category=10171
  8. Dude........people don't build guitars because its less expensive, they do it for the love of doing things for them selves same with amp builders. If this is not the case don't even bother, just buy an amp. All the amps I build are 100% from scratch so I am not a expert on kits. What type of music are you playing? This (saturation) is something I just broke ground on a year ago, with my mini jcm (prototype) basically its a low wattage amp with lots of gain at lower levels and is based on that circuit with a twist, you won't find a kit like that. I am presently working on a plexi jr and taking things I learned to the next level. Any one can build anything but getting things 100% just right is not always easy, you can follow all the directions in the world and the amp can turn out doing some strange things.......there are some very powerful magnetic fields crossing paths with ultra sensitive inputs.
  9. Look on this link then go to the bias link its on this page though you can't miss it: http://www.dreamtone.org/PJ.htm
  10. It is, but not if you wan't a compact version....... LOL
  11. Two things make the 5E7 harder, the bias circuit, then setting the bias. You do not do this in a 5E3, since it is cathode resistor biased, (a lot simpler )
  12. Yes, I made a 5E7, here it is: http://www.dreamtone.org/5E7.htm And I would do a 5E3 first, its also a very cool amp. I take it you play blues? Right....
  13. Not sure, I am not a fan of crate because of durability reasons. But I can say that I would rather have a Blues Jr. VS. this palomino. But a 5E7 has some really sweat tone! Its much above both these amps, but I still think the Blues Jr is a nice amp too.
  14. This site is great for guitar wire diagrams http://www.guitarelectronics.com/category/...ckerwiringmods/
  15. I would say it all depends on #1 you were happy with the tone, and how much a replacement one will cost. Also what speaker depends on what type of music you play. Check this place out http://www.avatarspeakers.com/
