Notjack's EX1

[wazkelly]

Hi Andy, they are an unbelievably comfortable thing to play, even if it is a bit longer than your usual LP or SG.

Thanks for all the advice.

i had a go at making the neck a better fit by using the E strings to align the neck with the body and then gluing some veneer in the gap. it seems to have done the trick so i can now start moving forward with this guitar again now.

MMMMMM Black Explorer, i will have to send you the FrankenLab, FL stamp of approval

So, i've started putting the finish on my EX, so far so good apart from dropping the sanding block onto the body which left a nice dent. a bit of filler and 2 coats primer on the body luckily fixed that.



Also got some black on the neck which is starting to look nice but needs a few more coats


My biggest dilemma now is that i think i prefer the white primer finish to the black gloss. so i may change my mind and spray it matt white.

Noice! Very Noice!. Black neck White body! Make it a Zebra?

They do look a lot bigger when done in white.

Yes, make a Scorpions guitar

Yes, satin or matte white would look great with the black neck
