Looks like a good build Lawrie.

Thanks Woks. A good idea.
And I'm really keen to go on this holiday but I'm also champing at the bit to get stuck into the RC. Still, it's better than working isn't it Gav? Oh, you wouldn't know. You just keep building when you should be cutting code ;-)
Just a quick question Lozza. I just shopping for a few goodies as we speak and I'm lookin' at those roller bridges. Am I to believe (just going off the pictures) that any adjustment made to intonation is done from those hex bolts in the top? It looks it'd be a pain in the ass once the strings are on, please correct me if I'm wrong, cheers./<\\/p>[/<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/]<\\/p>/Quote from lawry on August 9, 2014, 19:35
Thanks guys. Yep, it's going to be fun once I come back from hols.
Bargie, I bought the roller bridge on ebay for about $15. Just type in roller tune-o-matic.
boating frenzy is over Lozza, back to work on this!

It's over more than you realise, Stan. After the Hammo races we went sailing in Tonga (44 foot Beneteau bareboat charter) and have just gotten back./<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/Quote from stan on August 25, 2014, 20:14

The good thing is that there were pressies waiting for me when I got home.
A swanko Dremel kit with lots of bits as a Fathers' Day gift from my youngest (thanks Caitie), and
A few bits of guitar hardware.
Time to start planning the build with more seriousness. Hurrah!

nice score Lozza, now lets see that dremel in action. Is that wiring harness for the Ricky ?
welcome back to building axes land !

Sure is Wokka. I decided to buy a ready made harness cos it's easier and cheaper than getting the individual parts.
Welcome back Lozza, good to see you back on deck.
You wouldn't believe it, I got the exact same dremmel kit for Dads day too:-) talk about a handy bit of gear alright, I've just about worn it out already![]()
Looking forward to seeing this build progress.
welcome back to the real world Lozza, looking forward to seeing this shape up. Dremmel for the win, very nice

You can't build guitars without a Dremel! Great to have ya back mate... but a ready made harness, that's like a chef buying a pre-made salad mix in a bag *shakes head*
