Hi chaps, just curious about how the entwistles compare to the toneriders, anyone tried both? Hv58 and AC2 specifically or just the two brands in general? I've got tonerider hot classics in a tele...

Hi Chaps,
Here's my Gr1-SF. Colortone blue with clear Dingotone over the top. A few extra bits and pieces;
Grover sta-tight tuners
One of DB's famous nuts (That could be taken out of...
Cheers DB. will do.
Hey DB, that sounds like what I was doing. Have definitely been going back over bits trying not to miss bits. Still sand it back with steel wool as Wokka suggests?
cheers guys, I'll give it a go and see how I get on.
Hi chaps.
I'm noticing a waxy residue on my Dingotone top coats. Why would that be? Putting it on too thick? cold weather?
Cheers.
Incurable? My! why isn't something being done? Why hasn't Geldoff organised GAS-Aid? We need to raise money for this terrible affliction... then spend it on guitars.
Haha tell me about it. Just when I think I've got the GAS under control Adam goes and spoils it by posting pictures of the new Starcaster kit.
Cheers DB. I've been leaning towards a dark amber for a body finish, what would be the chances of getting Bloodwood or something similar as a custom body kit? looking at something like this...
Hi Guys,
I was just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what the Bloodwood and Acacia neck finishes look like? I'm planning my next build (Scored a 'Coronado' in the summer sale) and...
Haha, Yeah I know, would have been the straight forward thing to do, but I already had the colortone and have done some test bits to get the colour I wanted. Definitely going all dingotone on the...
Cheers for the info guys. I reckon I'll give it the go ahead.
Hi Guys,
I'm contemplating using colour less Dingotone as a top coat over colortone stain. Anyone tried doing the same, will it work?
Cheers,
Patto
Dude, sounds awesome. Look forward to seeing it finished.
Hi Guys, just a quick heads up, I'm building a GR-1sf at the moment as well, and from my mock build measurements it looks like the bridge (with the saddles all the way forward) might be too far back...
Hey Guys,
Like most of you, I imagine, I spend heaps of times looking on guitar forums all over the net, researching all sorts of guitar nonsense. Everywhere you go there are tone-gurus telling...
Cheers Wokka, I do feel a bit sceptical when people say 'Oh yes, well maple has a slight zing in the top register that you wont get with bla bla bla and you'll here that tone on (insert recording by...
Righto, better nip down the florists to get the missus in a good mood. All jokes aside, I've been considering putting in a special order for one with a maple top. Partly because flamed/quilted maple...
Cheers fellas. My next question was gonna be about fretboard radius, so you've beaten me to the punch on that one.
Hi Guys,
Long-time lurker, first time poster. I'm planning a Gretsch build (and probably going way overboard with my plans) just curious about the nut on the Gretsch kits. Does anyone know if a...
