Hi Sonic

Hi
I was hoping to get some advice on spraying metallic flakes. Never tried it before. Found 30g of 0.008 flakes in the colour I want.
Anyone any advice on the easiest way to go about starting...

Back to a 5 way switch. The pitbull guitar site seems to have a half finished wiring diagram so I stole this one off...
I agree with you ending statement. A complete rewire is needed. I am having too many issues trying to achieve this and am not good enough to figure it out. I think I will revert back to a 5 way...
I’m only getting around to this now. I will let u know how it goes

“Hi Simon, it’s contaminants on the wood. Glue / oil / silicone . You can’t magically have unmixed solvent in a spray can.”
Is the short and sweet reply that I have gotten from the paint...
It is indeed a nitro rattle can. I have just contacted the supplier to see what they reckon. Would the unmixed solvent coming out be caused by not shaking the can enough? I shake the hell outta the...
Just a little bump to see if anyone can help with the above problem.

Did you spray the white first, wait for it to dry, then tape it off and spray blue? The lines look super sharp!

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask but I was wondering what the chances are of getting some microtonal necks in? Any demand apart from me?

This is the wiring diagram that I have originally used. I think everything is correct apart from my switch wiring....

Not quite sure what is going on with these dots that the paint won’t take to.

Any wiring experts?
I am trying to wire this strat to a 3 way switch. Seems like all 3 pickups are on all the time when I move the switch lever. Can’t work out what I have done

It’s been a while but I’m back at this one. I opted to contact Adam and as I have heard countless times on this forum he has came through with the best customer service. He has offered to swap the...
Me too. Thanks

I’m in a fairly same position. I have an ash strat body I didn’t grain fill enough. After spraying nitro the grain texture is still there (originally I wanted it smooth) I’m not sure how to get the...
This is going to look amazing when finished. Well done

Thanks sonic. I’ll research those. I reckon I left the tape on for too long as you say. One coat of blue wasn’t enough so I had to wait until it had dried a bit before applying a 2nd coat. Then I...

Superglued the crack and squeezed some filler in. Hopefully I can smooth it all out. The...

Whoops. Anybody any ideas? Try to glue? Or take off and try filler and spray over?

If I hadn’t have left mine so long I would have gotten a replacement too. It’s the safest option.
My plan for clamping is to trace the shape of the lower body io to mdf and cut out the shape,...
It’s been a long time since I have done any builds, but I think I have time to get stuck into this build. Not really sure what to do with regards to finish on this one so any suggestions are...
