    How many play guitar?

    100% Top of my list. :) 2nd on my list! :ROFLMAO: Interesting recommendation. I hadn't thought of him, but I get what you're saying. Will definitely keep it in mind. I'll need you to talk to my wife! She's a bit of a minimalists and can't understand all my *needs*.

    How many play guitar?

    I've actually been starting to work on a little bass just for this reason. I'm new to my area and am looking for people to play with, but you say you play guitar and you're just another face in the crowd. Especially at my stage where I'm transitioning from intermediate to advanced. My...

    How much weight should paint add?

    Following on, the Meadowhawk arrived today (yea!) and it weighs 3lb 11oz which is a 0.5lbs more than the showcase weight more or less. So, perhaps that's the answer: ~0.5lbs. I'm also thinking that the flake finish on the Dinkycaster could be heavier due to them trying to mitigate the issues...

    Marbled Padouk limited run is on sale now, plus.... a new kind of finish!

    I've been waiting for something cool to come out to replace my old cheap kit strat body, and this does the trick. I love the finish and grabbed a nice light one.

    How much weight should paint add?

    It's amazing what people insist impact tone. At some level everything has an impact, but it's also undeniable that putting a drop of red food coloring in a swimming pool changes it's color. Doesn't mean we can detect it, and even if we can that one way or the other is better (especially given...

    How much weight should paint add?

    Wow! I am as well. If I take that and subtract it from the net weight of the dinkycaster that would make the raw body to be about 3.5lbs more or less. Maybe not the lightest, but certainly not heavy. And I could see flake finishes as being heavier as they need to be thick enough to fully...

    Custom pickguard for Dinkycaster

    Looks amazing! Let me know if you hear from pickguardian. Otherwise we can move forward with me getting a template cut. If pickguardian can do it, I'll take 3. :cool:

    Custom pickguard for Dinkycaster

    I'm finding out what they laser cutter needs. It may be an Illustrator file. Should find out later today.

    Filter'Tron (TV Jones) wiring pluses and minuses

    Thanks for the input guys! I found it a little strange that the TV Jones "Standard" wiring is VV. I'll probably experiment first with a VT setup then maybe a 3 knob version.

    Custom pickguard for Dinkycaster

    I don't have the Illustrator skills to do that part. I was going to create a paper cutout then make a template by just sanding/filing the shape. A digital shape would be awesome though as I know someone with a laser cutter and I can get her to cut me the template so I can route it from there...

    Dinkycaster Inferno'Tron

    Can you order one like that, probably not. But you could get one cut for standard humbuckers then modify it from there to fit your pickup rings. I've cut pickguards before with a hand saw and then when close to my final dimensions did the rest with files. It's a little time consuming to do a...

    Dinkycaster Inferno'Tron

    I love the mockup! I'll go ahead and create a template. I have the router bit to cut the bevel, and am going to figure out how to do all the things to make a pickguard. The only complexity is that I was going to cut the pickup hole in the pickguard on the guitar using the actual pickup route...

    I think you're right. The shapes are fighting against each other.
