Here it is the first pics of the "him" graveyard disciple finishing in "midnight black" PPG wood tone stain now its time to start the heartagram logo, I'm still undecided on final clear lacquer...
So dingo you don't agree with wiring it like an ex-1 with a new hole drilled in the control cavity for a 3 way?
I've decided to make things simple, there is no way around this but I will simply have to put a 3rd hole in the control cavity for a 3 way, Adam I think you need to talk to the supplier as this kit...
oh and I Ordered Behlen deluxing compound to hand polish my guitars then I use Maguires Cut & Polish with a foam medium abrasive pad then use a swirl remover at the end
I ordered Nitrocellulose from the UK and they shipped it labelled "guitar Parts" Rothko & Frost is the name of the company I ordered through, it is a much better finish than acrylics
Hmmm other option is put a third hole in the control cavity
Yea I would need to buy one the right diameter
I had noticed this also, I have a spare three way but am unsure on if i can actually make a cavity for it
I'm doing this in black yea but not a complete solid black it will be a translucent
Always sand with the grain man, especially if staining and not doing a solid colour

while I will admit this looks great so far and it is looking to be an epic LP, after doing a fair few guitars now I will say orbital sander is not a good idea, a hand sanding using 3 different grades...
hi yes I'm sure there is no capacitor, I always get everything out to make sure it is all there hence my enquiry on here, I will buy a capacitor if it is needed as I said that's of no concern I just...

anyone experience wiring a GD-1 kit? I must seem like an idiot but I am unsure of the wiring set up as there is apparently no tone control (due to lack of capacitor in the kit) or selector switch. If...
I have only built Gibson style and one rebuild of a esp KH 202 that I bought was a friends who wanted the Ouija board on it, this is my 6th guitar kit build though but my first fender style, hence...
