I've already ordered a new blank (I had other thing I was buying anyway so why not). But, I'll likely just bitch about the current state of things for awhile, eventually try filing the slots, be annoyed with the results, bitch about that for awhile, make frown faces at the nut blank as it...

One bad thing happening is a damn shame Second time it happens is a hell of a coincidence Third time is enemy action You just need one more data point. 😁 How did you manage the the filing? Did you widen the end towards the tuning machines? Cut a new path? I was considering doing the same...

I was finally able to grab some time to do guitar assembling and went to work on the Meadowhawk I ordered on release day. Besides the usual fussing over the setup, playing with different knobs, getting used to completely new to me pickups, etc. I've been overall happy with the results. The...

I was just looking for some single coil's for the "bacon" strat body I picked up a little while ago, and it seems I have the answer. I had been leaning Seymour Duncan, but will give these a go. Nice price too.

The real issue is the P90 cutout in the bridge. I had Dan at MojoAxe remove the cutout for the neck pup which I'll route myself to fit the TV Jones Classic I'll be putting in, but I didn't think about the bridge pup cutout which looks wide. That's something for me to tweak tho so Aaron and I...

Definitely the best policy. And I appreciate it. Teamwork makes the dream work!

Hey @aarontunes thanks for the shout out. I got mine from Dan as well, but haven't made any progress on the dinkycaster. There's several tweaks I want to do including some on the pickguard, but I'm feeling inspired! And just so ya know, my name is Scott Deeg (last name said like egg)...

I love the Safe-T-Plane! So simple and so useful. Definitely a high value to cost ratio tool. Project looks like it's coming along well. Looking forward to seeing it when it's done.

Congrats to whoever got that koa neck!

Enough already ... I've hit my limit! ♾️

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*.

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...

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...

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.

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...
