Congratulations Darth, beautiful looking guitar. Well deserved
Well done Chuck, great job.
Ah, not quite the sort of case I was thinking of!
Dedman, sincere apologies...not sure why I missed your last comment.
I appreciate the offer, the knob on the switch I have is a black 'top hat' type and not round though.
Can you send me a pic...
Thanks Stan and Dingo. I can normally find anything I need on a certain popular retail online outlet, but this one is eluding me. If not I'll have to get the ones in the photo from Germany.
Can anyone recommend where I can find Telecaster chrome switch knobs here in Australia?

Great advice guys as ever, thanks.
As a rule of thumb (working on worst case that there are no instructions or markings on the pedal) I would go with, if the pedal has a battery it would be safe...
Hi,
I've just bought a Caline 5 power distribution pack for a pedal board and I read in the instructions (yes, I hear you, it's not normal to read the instructions first!) there is a potential...
Very classy Archie, good job
Thanks phrozin, appreciate the comments.
It may have been a bit ambitious for a first attempt, but luckily it paid off!
Wow, from someone who never wins anything, I'm over the moon with the result.
This was a true labour of love (just ask the missus!). Thanks to the judges and all the other great entries for...
Thanks for all the positive comments, it's much appreciated
Thanks Nitro
My first build and it came out better than I wanted to so thought I'd enter it for GoM.
It started as a base ST kit, sanded, sealed and primed. Black acrylic base coat applied to the neck and...
Well, almost there.
Gave the body and neck a last polish at the weekend at put her together.
In the process of setting up the action and intonation and a couple of small touch ups to do.
"B"...
Fixed it.
I unscrewed the output jack and plugged in the guitar and everything worked fine with the jack loose so I trimmed off some sheliding in the jack cavity, taped up the terminals, refitted...
Thanks Scott, I'll dismantle it tomorrow and take a look.
Is it possible to put PVC tape around the pots and anything else that could come in contact with the shielding?
I wired up my ST today (following the video guide) and I get no sound.
Soldered Yellow to the tremolo bracket and bare wire to inner part of output and covered wire to the outer part of the output...
I used a Septone Acrylic Clear phrozin, the same clear I mixed the candy into. I sprayed four thin coats of clear on allowing about 30 mins between each coat.
I've got both neck and the body in a...
Finally got the candy on, 5 coats in all of Port Red, so under normal lighting it has the colour of red wine, but in the sunlight it really lights up, not that I'll be playing outside much.....

Looking good Nitro. I like the contrast between the blue and the pick guard. Very cool.
Thanks for the advice, I'll tread carefully.
Planning to add 5% DNA Candy concentrate to Septone Acrylic clearcoat (advised by acrylic paint supplier). Definitely will try on a test panel before...
Would this (or the SCA Crystal Clear 2K) work over an acrylic base coat does anyone know?
Good info, thanks. I'll try this on my next post
Andy, I watched a couple of guys in the US on YouTube painting a motorbike fairing and the end result looked pretty good.
Thought it would look cool on a guitar.
