  1. Hey Guys I have a odd problem at the moment. I have an old ibanez les paul copy with a bolt on neck. The owner gave it to me to change the pickups becasue the old humbuckers would feedback. I changed them and i have noticed the same problem. As soon as you take your hand of any metal bits including strings it starts buzz hard out. I have wired and rewired this beast with no improvement. The wiring is standard les paul style. The ground is all good and i have installed all new hardware. Do i need to sheild this bad boy? Cheers
  2. Hey Dude Two books i found very helpful and cheap on Amazon. Make your own electric guitar and bass- Dennis Waring & David Raymond Building Electric Guitars - Martin Koch
  3. Drill Press, Good Bits... If you are using a les paul scale, measure from the nut 24.75 inches (or what ever your scale is) and mark it of. The rest is easy man.
  4. That black works really well with the neck, umm you have given me some more ideas. Sweet job man. Do you have sound clips?
  5. Man that red is as red gets brother. Looks cool thou. Way to go!!!
  6. Hey Dude. That is a very nice Guitar. Who did you get the shape of, i love it. Could i get it of you. I was just about to do my strat and then i saw that shape and i am loving it. I bet is sounds like a million bucks, do you have sound clips?
  7. One of those points are to long. Unless you have a bad bass player and then its perfect to jab them with,
  8. i have been looking at a Fender Blues Junior amp for a long time. Tried a Line 6 POD live in front of it at the music shop the other day. I did like it. You work is very good Mate. I love the burst you got there.
  9. Some nice work there mate. I love the fact you can customize your knobs etc.
  10. Hey Westhemann What type of finnish did you use? I have a bubinga top i need to finish. Did you add a tint to the finish? what was the process from the filler to the final buffing. Cos man that axe is killer. Cheers
  11. Dylan, if it is your passion and if your good at wood working, go do it. Its your God given ability so use it.
  12. I wonder when that one comes out in NZ... i will check the music store today.
  13. zeppen what did you do to that guitar. Did you get hungry?
  14. Now thats hot. We did this sunburst with candy colors, not stains.
  15. Hey Dude i think that its a good idea. I would like to build a hollow body with a cut away on the back but i think that would be alot of work.
  16. Hey Guys i have this Bubinga top I want to finish. I have used some off cuts and tried clear lacquer and Danish oil, but they didn't bring up the beautiful grain liked i hoped it would of. Any ideas on how to get the grain jumping out at ya! I am not sure if you can stain this stuff, personal I don't think it would help. but i am open to ideas.
  17. Mate that is an awesome guitar. Nice work. Do you have sound clips?
  18. Easyer in what way? I am using acrylic lac and from a gun. I am always looking for a better way. IS the dry time different?
