Hey Adam, could I custom order a 25 string guitar for my super heavy djenting? I only need a pickup for the bottom two strings though. If you play djent, dont take it to heart, no offence intended.

There is now a specialist Djent guitar now as below.

Otherwise known as a Diddley Bow. African Americans were making them 120 years ago. (Obviously not electric ones, they've only been made since the 1940's)Quote:

It's just another word for "wank" mate.Quote:

Deal of the year. Can I get a quilted veneer?
Stunning! Can you do that in an 8 string?Quote:

if you throw in a 1 string pickup, 1 heavy string, 1 saddle bridge and 1 tuner I'll be keen !
Does that fit gauge 99999 strings?
not sure Ultpanzi, might need Ads to supply something stronger than a fence picket. Maybe add some Ormsby carbon fibre to it to strengthen it
I reckon it will suit gauge 666 strings ;)
good point Ian, great idea
what is with the username Ian, is that a TC Cortina you have or used to drive ?
That was my first ever car, Mk 3 Cortina 1600. Cragar rims, Italian made double barrel Weber, Coby exhaust system, extractors, lumpy cam, Pioneer CD player and furry black interior. Finished in a beautiful shade of primer grey (also known as "police magnet" grey)Quote:

classic Barge, thats what I'm assuming Ian (TC1600) used to drive. Did it go alright Barge or was it a dog to drive ?
The Australian version had a 2 litre, and a 200 and 250 cubic inch straight 6
When I first bought it (before I started doing it up) it was poo metallic brown and used to use 4 litres of oil for every 100 kms.
Bought a new motor, did it up and it was a good bus, when you're 16 years old just having a car of your own is a bonus. For only a 1600 she used to wind up to 170km flat out, not bad really.
classic Barge, thats not bad at all 170 clicks for 80% of an orange juice carton !
HeheheheheQuote:

That's right , I forgot I put a racing steering wheel in it too (of course), the factory ones, if I remember correctly were about the same diameter as the wheel off the Love Boat.
Finally saved up enough money for a tidy car, sold it to some young fullas round the corner and they wrote it off within two weeks, could handle the power:-)
I sure have Wokks!Quote:

So Barge we must be the official day time PBG thread jackers haha - we keep the forum running.
I'm just trying to edge toward 5000 posts and get a new tag haha
Bloody hijackers alright:-) Glad I could be of assistance getting that post tally up.
You'll be 5000 in no time if we keep up all this shit talkin'
haha your not wrong Barge, all I dream and think about at work is the next stage in my builds so you are helping me with some ideas !Quote:

haha yeah much better option Barge, so is that Coopers Green ? that is one of DB's fave may get you 2 weeks off your naughty room sentence.
I can't get excited about wiring and electronics either, I'd rather sand any day of the week
Yep, green ones all day long.Quote:

I'm surprised you two get anything build, let alone the amazing efforts you come up with...
You know what Stan, I treat building guitars just like everything else in life, I bullshit my way through it:-)Quote:

Lol this thread took off on a tangent!! Sorry to disappoint, it wasn't a Cortina, the TC stood for Twin Cam, I had an AE82 Corolla for years with the 4AGE engine, factory 7700rpm redline and a sweet note from the straight through exhaust, it was full of rust but I loved driving through the Adelaide hills in that thing! I was on a few car forums with that as a user name and it just kind of stuck. I sold it a while back as I bought my dream car from my teens, a GT-Four Celica :)

My Celica with the Corolla in the background
A Corolla....wow talk about an anti climax alright!! Naa I'm pulling ya leg. Is that a 6 cylinder Celica?
no but the GT 4 was turbo and all wheel drive - at the time was the WRC championship car, very cool
I know Stan we may seem similar but we're not related, I aint a kiwiQuote:

we might as well rename this a car thread haha
I got a WRX-head workmate he owns 3, he has a rare 22B which was imported from Japan only a few hundred built. Been for a ride and goes like a shower
the ST185 paved the way but I loved the ST205
one of my favourite rally cars
http://i45.servimg.com/u/f45/12/75/88/90/st205_14.jpg
I have a home built golf turbo
The 22B was an awesome bit of kit, probably the peak WRX model, after that they seemed to get a bit fat and soft. The 205 was the one I really wanted, but only 77 were sold in Australia, so they are still pricey, I was happy to settle for the 185 though :)
22b is pretty iconic. 185 still a very nice car - it was the first GT4 I ever saw, loved that vented bonnet goodness
