I have used PBG necks for my scratch builds. Mainly- 1. I do not think I could get the parts for a decent price, and 2. I'm not sure I could do a...

Hi all, hate to resurrect an old thread, but are there any more tips for removing DT other than scraping? Would a heat gun help in the process? In...

An apple a day keeps the bass at play or something like that. Yeah drilling the holes for the ferrules is a scary prospect but I will do it at the...

I have recently purchased a set of string through ferrules to convert one of my tele builds. I'm mostly worried about getting the holes drilled...

Ah no worries, I'll pester you guys with guitar building questions when the kid and I actually start building our kit. I'm traveling the next 4 weeks...

I haven't A/B'd top vs through strings with a guitar yet, but I have with a bass. Sort of. I have a '75 Fender P-bass that is top loaded. I have...

Thanks Trevor yes I really like the gold hardware and the colour scheme, I was even tempted (but resisted)to make a few more hole in the burr so I...

The guitar is looking great. The gold hardware goes really well with the light burl colours.

The Wilkinsons should be great. Once you've cured the buzz, it'll be interesting to see if you like the string-through or top loading better. I was...

Thanks again fender, Ive applied more paint, added copper strips to make sure all the paint is connected to pickguard and bridge so we will see how...

Thanks for the reply’s

Nice to have someone new on the board with this sort of knowledge! ;-)

I had this brief period where I experimented a bit with building a pedal (a Dan Armstrong Orange Peeler), and there used to be some pretty good...

I've built many pedals using PCBs from Madbean and AionFX. I source components myself and get the box drilled painted and UV printed by Tayda. The...

Wow! It's a real beauty! Your back will thank you for the lightness the longer you own it ;-) Some people think the tape is better than the paint...

Getting the feel of the toneriders and really like them, there’s good clarity and a cleanness even when using lots of gain. Ive ordered a cheap fuzz...

Finished my Tele build, again happy with the end result, feels nice in the hands mush lighter than other builds I've done. I painted all the cavities...

Thanks Trevor

I think you just need a bigger room! There seems to be a lot of advice in the "DIY Pedals" area. I recall a couple using Stewmac kits as a...

Thanks fender, always lots of good info :)

The one with the taller post goes a little closer to the nut on the D-G strings, the other goes a bit further away from the not on the B-E strings. I...

I have not heard about that approach before. Maybe you could post something on the decal forum. Speaking just for myself, I have mostly used the...

I tried the waterslide thing - and found it a little more "difficult" that I originally thought it would..... I then found some "transfer paper"...

I had the same concerns with the body colour, Douglas Fir is rather stripy and an unusual colour - so I couldn't be sure of what colour I'd end up...

I’ve been working on my burl top Tele build and am wondering how to fit/ use the little saddles and spacers that hold the strings on the headstock,...
