    Hardtail bridge?

    I've never had a big issue with that.  :icon_scratch:

    Fret working tools

    A carpenter's level, double stick tape, making tape, sandpaper (220-320ish), a Sharpie and a medium three corner file should be enough to get most jobs done.

    Maton Custom Order Country Jumbo Acousric Guitar.

    That's definitely going to sound huge.   :hello2: She's got the potential to be a real stunner, I'm looking forward to completed pics!

    Strat is finished

    Sounds like a cool project, I imagine it must be quite a stunner.  :icon_biggrin:

    When did the site change?

    I like it, seems a little more lightweight overall.  The Strat presentation is different, but I like it.

    Gibson in trouble again.

    Don't get me wrong here.  I'm not a fan of Gibson, nor do I agree with most of their business practices.  I think that place is ready to implode and they need to fire a lot of executives first and foremost.  The problem is, MAP is legal and even supported by the FTC.  Even setting quotas is...

    this company does all the wiring.

    I like the planning stages of electronics more.  (Un?)fortunately, I've done enough soldering that I tend to blow through it kind of mechanically. I like screwdriver time.  It means that prep is over and it's time to join parts.  :icon_biggrin:

    Gibson in trouble again.

    This pretty much sums up the problem. Good luck proving anything without a key insider witness.  They can quote statistics at each other all day but that won't win this case.  Gibson will probably get granted a dismissal based on lack of evidence.

    Unexpected addition to the family.

    Nice score.  With a well fit cone, you'll be styling!  :icon_thumright: Its just a different method of guitar amplification, rather than the traditional acoustic soundboard.  They use a biscuit bridge and cone to generate volume.  Other than that there's technically no incorrect style of playing...

    ok - what's the real scoop on guitar fetish pickups

    SD makes one (SLS-1B), its just not carried by a lot of places. It is mentioned in their "Calibrated set" that nobody carries either.  :laughing7: http://www.seymourduncan.com/products/electric/stratocaster/vintage/lipstick_tube_f/

    Advice from all Wilkison users

    Define extreme(ish).  Are we talking Steve Vai or just CC Deville?  :laughing7: If you really want to wank, it's hard to beat the Floyd Rose double locking system for tuning stability.
