  1. Rio Jakaranda är Rosewood. Rosenträ är något helt annat
  2. And also a PG member Actually its cut with a vinyl cutter/plotter.
  3. Sustainiac controls... Neck pickup volume is a push/pull for on/off, neck "tone" is push/pull for mode and the pot is for the "gain"

  11. Yes, and they will send me a new one.
  12. I bought the stewmac nipper after years with the dremel. After 4 frets this happened:
  13. Explorer drawing: PDF Corel Draw 9
  14. I would love to build an explorer but don't have any plans for the body. Do you have anything you could email me? The guitar is fabulous. Definitely one of the nicer guitars I've seen here. Very classy. I like the ebony board with the single inlay. One thing though - why mount the pickups on rings? I see a lot of projects done this way in this forum. Why not simply screw the pickups directly onto the body? ← I can mail my drawing, its a bit smaller than a standard explorer, more like the Explorer Pro. On a guitar like this with the neckangle and all it would look really ugly to mount the pickups without rings, atleast in my eyes
  15. The inlay is made of clear acrylic with a "mirror" bottom I used nitro satin clear, its a flat clear kind of
  16. Body: Mahogany Neck: Mahogany Fretboard: Ebony Pickups: EMG 81, EMG 60 More pics here
  17. Thanks! I saw that "trick" on a photo forum, I'm still learning I use spokeshave, scraper, morakniv and sandpaper for carving as I said, I'm still learning the blur-trick-thing I think I blurred a bit too much on the back picture so it looks like the cover is closer to the edge than it really is, I'll get a better pic of it. But it is a bit off from a Gibson cavity because of the pot and jack placement. I used a waterbased (black) stain that became a bit purple in the lighter areas, I liked it so... and you know, great minds... The covers are standard black plastic covers with chrome vinyl on them Thanks! I "stole" the stand design from Martin or Taylor I think.
  18. Mahogany body and neck, maple top, rosewood fretboard, stainless steel frets (6100) Gotoh/Schaller stopbar/bridge, Kluson tuners Pickups: Bridge: Seymour Duncan JB Neck: Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro More pics here
