Huh, so 1" thick was really .965 all along? I feel cheated. Lol Since the accusations are flying about calipers, i broke mine out, out skool! Vernier calipers with a micrometer backup! My 1 11/16" '99 fatback is indeed not an inch thick. Its .963 at the nut and .965 at the 12th. However...

Did anyone notice the fatback and boatneck specs changed? They're down from 1" to .965". Not a bad thing IMO. @aarontunes can we still get the OG size off menu/call in?

I'm a huge lace fan. Ive had: Golds Blue Silver Hot Silver Hot gold Red A set of hemibuckers. A set of holy grails I ran sets as: Hemis with the Hot gold in the middle. 5 way, coil splits, bridge on switch. It had 13 sounds. Red Silver blue in a 90 strat plus deluxe. Tried golds in another...

I play with a combination of hand positions. Im not thumb over. Nor behind. My thumb usually sits under the a string area, so shoulders are super important to me, as well as some meat for my thumb webbing to cradle. I first got the fatback in 1 11/16 and 6130s. Love it. I wanted to try the...

I have a few that are loud acoustically I have a few that resonate like crazy There is some cross over. I cant say its one wood combo or another. Both my warmoth strat (chambered alder) and tele (alder) vibrate nicely. My mahogany (chambered) vip doesn't. They all sound good. The vip...

Meadowcaster. You're welcome.

Pop the tuners off and rub that sucker with just your fingers for a while. Polish it like you did the neck shaft. My first build had a satin neck that took 10 years or so to slick up/not be sticky. I paid like 30 bucks or something like that in '99 tobget the peg had glossed. The back of the...

I learned of them in the wild west days of the internet. I had just gotten a Squier strat, an ibanez soundtank chorus pedal, 2 cords, an ibanez tone blaster practice amp, and a rush songbook for 100 bucks from cousin. Man, I was hooked! Being the nerd I am, I scoured this new and exciting...

Why do i think it was 18.46 or something like that? 18.5" all day. If im building, its getting a compound. I only vary if the bridge isn't adjustable for radius, like the gotoh wraptail. I ordered a straight 14 to match.

My last order arrived within a few days of the posted time frame on the website.

I got mine with no box, brand new in '18 for 170 bucks. Couldn't go wrong at that price. 400 bucks plus? Ill pass. The bridge pickup is really cool. There were actually 2 versions of these floating around. The early ones were a bit hotter, but there were production issues or...

My first experience withvlace sensors was in the late 90s in my strat plus deluxe. I liked the red for gain. It was like a super clear po0/bucker sound, but much lower in volume. The blue was cool. I didnt like the silver, probably because it was in the middle position, which I despise...

@Spud : ain't it nice when you find that perfect profile? I just found my 3rd. Lol My new favorite is my Ltd eclipse necks in general, with my ec1000fr as the best of the 3. here is the shape at the 1st and 12th frets. Its 20/21 to 22/23mm in size. The other 2 are sanding variations on this...

Stacked pots?

That's a really nice quilt. Congrats! How are you finishing it?
