My 1st order arrived

[juwel1998]

Hey everyone,

my order has arrived just about 30 min ago. Like a small kid opening a x-mas present I started opening the 2 packages - neck + body.

The neck feels gorgeous, the body looks beautiful.  But there is a hole in front of the holes for the bridge.

Here are some pic's.

Can this cause a problem?

Please let me know.....


Bye  JULIA

Thats for your Bridge earth wire .... all is OK  :icon_thumright:

More Pic's  :blob7: More Pic's  :blob7: More Pic's  :blob7:


Was going to say NO it's NO good …. But I hate seeing a female cry  :icon_biggrin:

 

[Cagey]

Updown is correct. If you look closely, you'll see that hole goes all the way through to the control cavity. You run a ground wire from the control cavity to the bridge so your strings don't act as antennae and pick up noise.

 

[baskruit]

We need full frontal pics.


Or it doesn't exist.

 

[AutoBat]

^^they nailed it. Ground (Earth) wire goes there.

 

[thebutcher85]

no worries, that's where the bridge ground wire goes  :icon_thumright:

more pics please! awesome color!

 

[riverbluff]

That is one Purple guitar!  Should be a stunning build.

That's pretty awesome Julia, I love the big sparkle finish..... :headbang1:

 

[Cagey]

Too much fun.

Not sure why, but it brings this old Queen song to mind - "Brighton Rock".

 

[mgaut051]

That Goncalo looks curly. But the crime of putting sparkle on Indian Rosewood!!!

 

[SustainerPlayer]

Awesome build comming up here!  :icon_thumright:

 

[crash]

I love it!!!  All kinds of sparkle.  I think Agawan would love that one also.  I usually think star inlays look very cheesy, but they work on this guitar.



I think I want a sparkley guitar now too.

 

[Tipperman]

I seriously want a tele deluxe like this now, with two lindy fralin p92s. Holy shartski. Beautiful guitar Julia!  :hello2:

I know I've finally made my mind up. Properly done, Teles are a Good Thing.

I'm glad we're on the same page, my friend. I still wish your tele buzzed and hummed and picked up all the interference in a 3 mile radius, but hey  :dontknow:  :toothy12:

 

[Cagey]

No, it's as silent as the grave. Saw to it. Buzzes and hums are for AM radios and careless high-schoolers who don't know any better <grin>

You always make me laugh. Damn nice tele though. When are you posting soundclips? I wanna hear that bugger scream.
