next manage to get the 4th stain coat on. I was trying to match the headstock and body colours so mixed about 1/3 DT karijini red with 2/3 bushfire sunrise. Hard to see in the pics but the colours match pretty close. After a few days curing I'll decide whether I'm ready for clear coats !
Looks great Wokks, the colour is coming up nicely on both the body and headstock. Let's hope you don't have to change battery too often.
Pretty close colour match in those shots Woks. Presume back of neck will be natural?
Nice colour too and not far off the customised DT orange on my EX-5.
For another chrome knob just pinch one off a Tele, you probably have at least 15 of them kicking around at your place haha.
Looking amazing Wokks. The colour and the grain are amazing. Great job as always. Will be great to see her assembled.
cheers,
Gav.
cheers Weirdy, Waz and Gav.
@ Waz yes planning natural neck colour. The tele knobs are smaller mate. I'm heading to see DB this arvo so I'll pinch one off him !
@ Weirdy my 2 other active axes I have never had to change a battery, you just got to remember to unplug the jack after playing them. It's less than a 5 minute job to change the battery anyway, undo about 10 screws on the pickguard and loosen the strings. I got an extra heavy duty battery which I hope lasts. I went to Alltronics yesterday and they only had 9 volt battery clips, cradles and a sliding draw style box which wouldn't have worked.
Great work Woks will be interesting to hear the active circuit in action

cheers Ponch, Pabs talked me into installing the pre-amp. Should sound pretty cool I hope !
How's your's going you got primer on the body yet ? Too many things get in the way of axe building should be top priority !
As will I. Much more affordable option than the Audere preamp I was lusting after yesterday....
Hey Hoby, yeah cheap as chips the pre-amp was under $20 including postage !
Not yet woks.I have grain filled with CAglue. But......have managed to aquire a drill press yay!Quote:
