Thanks a lot dudes, appreciate the positive vibes! :occasion14:

This is my new baby… my new better half. :toothy12: The neck is Bird’s eye + a pau ferro board, nice glossy finish, ss mega jumbo frets. And the bod is a swamp ash 7CT with 3A flame maple carved top. Air norton neck and a D sonic bridge, having fun through a 5-way super switch (bridge - outer...

Cutting people's dicks off is no joking matter...  :laughing11:

Dammn... that thing looks like it came out of a spaceship. I want one!!!  :headbang1:

Looking good!  :occasion14: Fender pups to SD rails... how come? Cause I'm doing the opposite, going from rails to RG Tallboys. I'm curious to see how the white conversion will look... keep'em coming!

No worries, I think I was mistaken as to the mod being built into the Rothstein setups.  :doh: This is what I was talking about. http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/shielding/shield3.php But I appreciate your response! And again, you have outdone yourself with that great looking axe! :toothy10...

I was looking at the Rothstein site and they actually do the guitar nuts "quieting the beast" mod. I bought a set of RG Tallboys and am planning to do the mod, is it silent? Worth the trouble? Thanks!

Jesus Christ! What a hot rod! I would have never thought gold hardware would look so good. Talk about a paradigm shift! Awsome build man, I'm loving it!  :hello2: BTW, I have the same fret wire as you and I've been chopping the strings when I get too excited! Has it happened to you too?

Yep! Both neck and bod are showcase pieces, I remember going bonkers when I saw the amber flametop... very mellow feeling to it. I would love to see the all goncalo neck, I could imagine spending more time tracing the woodgrain! Thanks guys! She really came toghether "on her own," I had no...

Thanks a lot for the encouragement! The goncalo ROCKS! When the description says "waxy," its literally waxy. Almost like self lubrication...  :laughing7: You can almost feel like if the wood is sweating. I think its an amazing wood for necks. Your thumb and palm never stick, just like a...

Hey everybody!! After what seemed like a journey towards Mount Doom... (Thanks a big bunch Gregg!) FINALLY!!! My first build is born! Alder with Flamed top, with a hint of vintage stain. Goncalo Alves mated to an Ebony board, shooting streaks of stainless steal. A curious match of Seymore...

Thanks a lot for the advice! I would like to have a cool, standalone drill press for myself, but after a few strolls down the warmoth showcase... I'm broke! Hence, the dremel attachment. Drilling for the pilot holes just seems scary, it would suck to splinter the finish. Is there a way to...

I'm thinkin' of getting a drill press for the pickguard, tuner, plates, etc. pilot holes. I've been looking at a dremel drill press attachment that goes for around $40. What do you guys think? Piece of junk, or decent enough...
