I totally agree Cagey.

Okay in case you're curious, I have the basics of this underway. I added 24.75, 25.5 and 28.625 scales.  To get it into demo mode, I adjusted the 24 and 28 scales by eyeball. They are not accurate but they demonstrate where this can go. You have to move the body and hardware down when switching...

Hum... okay, as always, many ways to handle this. I'm big on usability so I'll try to employ the most advantageous solution... a good challenge. Thank you for all the feedback and keep posting more if it adds to the wisdom. I plan to have guitars and basses integrated here. There won't be any...

Whoa... okay HUM... so if you were designing a guitar with an online tool, would you expect a dropdown menu with all the neck options by name and then the tool draws the right scale?  Or would you expect to be able to specify the exact dimensions yourself?

Guys can you tell me what the lengths are for some of these other necks, i.e. baritone, bass, 7-string, 5-string bass, etc... I'm starting to think about how to handle all the neck options for my guitar configurator tool. Kinda need to know what all the variables are: Guitar • Gibson scale =...

I'll admit I've got something like this on my toe nails but even I wouldn't do a pickguard with that much bling. Maybe on a Gibson copy ;)

Clarification... it appears that headstock switching bug only exists for iPad/tablets... I don't see it happening in a normal browser.

True! I'm glad it's panning out too. I got a bit more done yesterday but I'm unhappy to report that I have strained my back which has caused part of my left arm and hand to go numb. Very painful. Very irritating. Cannot barely sit at the computer at all, let alone play my guitar! So not much...

You might have missed the BRIGHT RED TEXT that reads: Currently working on the gloss  :laughing7: And now the gloss is done and it scales *with* the body shapes below it now too.

Indeed! This new javascript library I'm using included that and the tracking is really good. Kinda slow on the original iPad 1 tho... can't help that.

Just an update on the conversion to HTML 5 and Canvas. You can now take sneak peek at it here: http://guitarsparks.com/machine/ Browsers: Opera, Safari, Chrome and to some extent Firefox. Firefox still does not have support for many HTML 5 features and if you research why, you'll find they're...

Well I am very very happy to report that I have successfully figured out how to recreate the guitar configuration tool using HTML 5 and Canvas. Not only is the code 100x lighter, I no longer need to create all these images for a new body and this also solves the issue of how to implement the 24...

Yep I know. I believe that's important to be able to simulate exactly what you can get from Warmoth or another painter.

Hey nice blog Jumble. FYI I updated that blending demo to include some different wood grains... You can now choose something like Quilted Maple and then apply a color with a blend mode. Not many colors, but enough to get the idea of how many different results can be generated even from just one...

Okay holy amazing batman... you can actually do Photoshop-style blending with JavaScript. But this requires more feedback from you guys. Blending tools like this essentially allow you to choose any color you want and blend it any way you want over the wood you choose. AWESOME! You say... but...
