My name is Dominik from Austria (no kangaroos) and Yesterday the parcel received. Haven´t got much time to check everything in detail, but on first glance looks great.
I ´ve done a Harley Benton Telecaster (Thomann) Guitar Kit once, but the body - wood is so light and squashy, even with good care, after the painting process it looked aged =)
New Christmas Project 2020 – Daron Malakian Iceman
He is my Guitar Hero – always wanted an Ibanez Iceman but they are rare here in Austria and pretty expensive, and they also don’t look right. Mostly you get the Paul Stanley Iceman.
Setup:
Black Iceman Body (Glossy)
Black Headstock with Gold truss rod cover (maybe a decal)
Gold Hardware
Gold Tonerider Generator PU
Gold Pickguard (optional)
Gold Tailpiece (I think it’s a fake tailpiece, it just holds the strings. No tremolo)
I can’t find that Tailpiece (except for a few hundred dollars) so I think it is also optional.
Question to the pros:
How to finish the Neck: I don´t like lacquered necks. On all my guitars I have sanded them down, but all my Guitars have a natural finished neck.
What is the “best” way to do it on an ebony neck?
Ebony Stain –-> Oil finish ???
To leave it naturally is also on option because I think I looks cool.
