    Schaller Da Vinci tuners

    Thanks for the help!  So my jig does have a Schaller single pin setting.  Do you think that is a standard for these tuners?

    Schaller Da Vinci tuners

    Anyone know if Schaller Da Vinci tuners will work with the Warmoth Schaller bores (25/64ths I think?) Also, anyone know if the 2 pin design is the same as the m6? Thanks for any help!

    Going for a WGD Garcia build

    From what I understand: A unity-gain buffer circuit simply converts the high-impedance signal into a low-impedance signal—like that of a typical microphone. With a low-impedance signal, you can play through a 100-foot cable without losing highs, turn your volume knob down without the sound...

    Pau Ferro for Tele fingerboard?

    Thanks for the help. Pretty torn, I like the look of Pau Ferro and the fact it would be something different.  Tough choice.

    Pau Ferro for Tele fingerboard?

    Thoughts on  Pau Ferro for a Tele fingerboard?    Was going Rosewood and looking for classic Tele tone but I am not a purist.  Swamp ash body maple neck with Don Mare Bakelite Pickups.  TIA

    Going for a WGD Garcia build

    I am going to be doing a WDG Garcia Rosebud style build. I have a few questions.  1) I want to do a veneer on the headstock but do not see the option in the builder.  Do I need to call and see about a special request? 2) I want 24 frets and it seems the only way to do this is with a single...

    Flake finish question

    I have a tele body finished (top coat rubbed out to gloss).  But I am a bit unhappy with the amount of flake.  I bought a premixed flake and the flakes are pretty small and not popping as much as I would like (almost more of a pearl look). Is it possible to buy some flakes, mix in topcoat and...

    Pot shaft problem

    Okay, thanks. So are most guys getting the shafts through and nuts on?  Even without the control plate I do not think I have enough thread to attach the nuts.

    Pot shaft problem

    Hi, On my rear cavity V-R I am putting a decorative control panel on top (Like a Jackson RR-1) but it seems even without the .125"  control plate the pot shafts are not coming through the top with enough threads to put the knobs on.  There seems to be little metal nubs on the pots (maybe .125")...

    Humbucker ring size

    Does anyone know what size the humbucker rings need to be for a V-R build?  I am having some custom built but he seems confused by the numbers I give him which are the cavity size?  Not sure what he wants for sure.  I measured the cavity  size to be 2 7/8 x 1.625.  So what total outside...
