Hi everyone,
Here's an update of the few steps i could go through this weekend...
I installed the tuners to both necks and i confirm 18 tuners completely unbalance the piece as expected....:D...
Oh man🤦🏻*♂️

thank you very much gentlemen...
Hi Colin2121,
thank you for your interest.
Unfortunately, the built is not moving forward as fast as i would like (spare time is rare ressources this summer), but i manage to built the Tru-Oil...

As i am not familiar with Polyurethane, i will follow your advice and continue with TruOil as you proposed.

i am a fan of JB and his sound, but for...
Hi !
Happy father's day to those concerns ;)
As it is very humid actually in Montreal (and i dont have climatiser at home) i will need to wait a bit to hit the board with oil until i can have...
Thank you Simon for the confirmation!
i also had a look to Wazzkelly Tru-Oil past work as proposed by colin2121 also wandered around the forum and find that all necessary info and more seem...
Thank you Andy40!
