Had a browse through Craigslist today and saw this monstrosity.  There was also a Gibson Maestro listed in which the seller graciously offered to wipe off any fingerprints before sale which gave me a chuckle. e: O. M. G.

ElectricHeir posted:Speaking of Japan, I was in Tokyo last week on vacation and I spotted this: Switches loving rule, especially on the Italian guitars, they loved them some switches, might have something to do with a lot of the guitar factories being re-purposed accordion factories Some of the most fun I've ever had fixing guitars was watching a metal player try and figure out all the switches on a 60's "Top Twenty" guitar I was restoring, he was like a caveman that just discovered fire. It was great fun "I thought that if all 4 pickups were on, it'd have like.... I don't know... What music is this for? Like... The beatles or whatever didn't have killswitches did they? Is this a killswitch? Why are their 2 killswitches?"

If it's who I think it is, he posted so many anti-muslim rants on facebook that the police popped around his flat for a chat. I might have to get someone to ask him.

I imagine that thing being literally impossible to have clean. It'll sound distorted even when it's unplugged.

I may be making a rod for my own back here, but it wouldn't be too hard to fit that over one of those stupid loving 6-way switches.

Help me decide what color to make my pickguard on my tacky guitar. Got it over a year ago and it originally had a "frosted" paint job that let the LED's underneath it shine through. I have sense covered the underside with tape so that only the symbol shown will shine through. However, I am considering changing the color scheme since I am a little bit dissatisfied with it, or maybe just want something new to spice it up. I am actually considering going back to the frost since I did like the contrast that the white gave it. Up to any and all suggestions really! edit: Or keep it how it is? (btw that is glitter paint  )

I dunno, that's pretty awesome as it is. The heater in my workshop killed itself earlier, I had to bring all the wood into the the warm to stop the frost getting anything. This is the spare room;  That wardrobe is stacked with wood, half finished guitars and various power tools, the clothes that were in there are hanging on a string I put up in the main bedroom. When the Mrs gets back from work, I will be stabbed.

do you even need the bit of the guitar at the bottom? couldnt you just have the flat board and stringy things tied to those knobs? just carpentry fetishism or does it actually contribute to the sound in a lectrix guitar

Khanstant posted:do you even need the bit of the guitar at the bottom? couldnt you just have the flat board and stringy things tied to those knobs? just carpentry fetishism or does it actually contribute to the sound in a lectrix guitar Short answer: Yes Long answer: Yes, for TONE Real answer: It's mostly to do with weight distribution to stop the instrument being too neck-heavy, you can easily have no wood behind the bridge though, but you tend to end up with stuff like this;  Which is awesome and super-comfy to play but no-one will ever buy it. Ever.

I did some minor work on one (replaced a bent pot) and they are awesomely comfy to play, but the owner was...... Odd. Have I ever said about the guy who owned a small studio who I sold two guitars to and the fucker hit the neck, body and strings with a tuning fork to test "the harmonic tonal response" then spent 20 minutes playing "wish you were here" badly whilst I awkwardly waited to get paid? It was his. I could never work out why a sound engineer would need someone to change a pot for him either.

Speaking of, here's some build photos of the frying pan tenor.  This is the donor pan next to the frying pan 6 string that WDE built a while ago.  The mahogany wardrobe door that has been chopped up and glued together to become the neck.  The purpleheart fretboard, which I've been told will end up a much more vibrant shade of purple once it's been sanded and finished.  The rough cut of the top of the guitar.  The rough cut on the pan, with the ruler showing where the neck will be.  The chrome rail that will become the pickups.  The rough sketch of the proposed tremolo system, made from the tailpiece of the Rom Paul mentioned earlier in the thread, a section of a cheese grater, and a BBQ fork handle for the trem arm. As far as specs go:
WDE, you have anything to add that I forgot?

I used to play with a guy who turned aome aluminium shelving brackets into a lap steel with a built-in speaker. He'd turn the amp up full and the whole thing would instantly start feeding back and vibrating like crazy. He also made an electric upright bass from a wardrobe door and various lamp fittings, amongst other things. Lovely guy and brilliant musician but total lunatic; had a PA wired into his living room ceiling and then his sofa cushions lifted up to reveal dozens of pedals in an old moog style patch bay. Lived on cold tea and frozen white bread covered in peanut butter and banana chunks, he claimed the taste and texture was identical to expensive french pastries. "OK Peter" I said, "But why were you eating frozen bread in the first place to find this out?" Shine on, you crazy crazy man.
