Guitar Discussion Thread V7 - More strings the better - General

[QUOTE=Siminov;29771144]Wtf Epiphone, go back to making casinos and Les Pauls... Wait, that looks like the Epiphone logo? What is it?[/QUOTE] Agile. [url]http://rondomusic.com[/url]

[QUOTE=nardix;29772208]You still have to adjust the truss rod afterwords, though.[/QUOTE] I'd say you're missing the point but you say it right here.

I adore my Tele. I can't stop playing it. It just does everything I want and looks amazing.

Ughhh. Can't decide which pedal to buy. Looking at the Mxr Blue Box fuzz/octave pedal, and the duncan lava box.

mxr blue box

I'm picking up either a Hendrix Fuzzface RI or the MXR 108 Classic Fuzz soon, it's essentially the Fuzz Face except it has an MXR logo and a buffer switch to work in correlation with Wahs. Not sure which I want tbh

[QUOTE=dcalde78;29772769]Agile. [url]http://rondomusic.com[/url][/QUOTE] Ah, they do make some nice guitars...

[QUOTE=ButtsexV2;29775572]I'd say you're missing the point but you say it right here.[/QUOTE] Not really, you said that you should never take all the strings off for more than a few minutes. It's really not that bad, I once left my bass standing there for a week without strings. No neck warp at all!

For my next partscaster project, what do you think of.

Just a standard Stratocaster... MIM Black body with gold hardware, Black HH pickguard with Gold knobs and gold covered humbuckers, Gold screws, Gold tremolo, Gold Tuners and a Vintage style neck with Rosewood fretboard.

Once I have a lot of money and become famous, I have to make a bass/keytar double necker.

Don't rip her apart. :frown:

No offense to Siminov but you think he can afford a Les Paul Custom to rip apart? :v: [editline]12th May 2011[/editline] For the record, I say go for it Siminov, it'll look pretty badass. You can do a mockup on Kisekae [img]http://i436.photobucket.com/albums/qq87/Dopey_Trout/Screenshot2011-05-12at224442.png?t=1305236774[/img] :fappery:

[QUOTE=Dopey Trout;29783273]Kisekae[/QUOTE] The fuck? [img]http://www.yajimastringworks.com/images/war_girl.jpg[/img] Though that actual guitar is kinda sweet. Another one for the "if I were unbelievably rich" pile. [img]http://www.yajimastringworks.com/images/st1.jpg[/img]

The only thing I am afraid of is, who will buy it, all my friends think its an awesome idea, but none can buy it off me when im done. :smith:

Yeah I knew I was being a bit unrealistic but I had fun anyway :v: I dunno, I guess a good plan would be don't make something (non ordered) that you wouldn't want to potentially keep

so my cousin is selling the body to my dream bass he wants $300 for it, as much as I'd love to I really can't afford that much for just the body.

The thing is, I already have my custom guitar all done, I was planing to build one to sell, it would be nice to keep but, I'd rather have the money right now.

[QUOTE=Siminov;29786179]The thing is, I already have my custom guitar all done, I was planing to build one to sell, it would be nice to keep but, I'd rather have the money right now.[/QUOTE] Try eBay and equivalent sites. Hell, if it's a thing you do often enough, set up a small store website and advertise a bit on some relevant forums, it's not that expensive.

Otherwise I would sell. It's a guessing game where you risk profit or you lose money. Then again Hypno-Toad sold custom guitars for good money.

I have a couple of Danelectro guitars and I use some obscure amplifier from the 80's (a friend gave me it) I also use Danelectro pedals.... Yes I love Danelectro.

[QUOTE=Siminov;29786943]Yeah, I was gonna do ebay, but I don't know if people would rather buy a custom guitar or make one themselves, that's all.[/QUOTE] It's not like it's that easy to make one yourself, otherwise a hell of a lot more people would be doing it.

[QUOTE=PwnNoobsFtw;29788768]Pics?[/QUOTE] I'll take some tomorrow for ya!

[QUOTE=Peppermint;29789115]I'll take some tomorrow for ya![/QUOTE] Got the Dano Pro because that things on my wish list.

[QUOTE=dranei;29789396]Got the Dano Pro because that things on my wish list.[/QUOTE] It was either the Dano Pro or the dead on 67, I chose the 67!

[QUOTE=Peppermint;29789611]It was either the Dano Pro or the dead on 67, I chose the 67![/QUOTE] The dead-on-67 is nice, but I really want it in white. I don't like a lot of the shades they got but the tone is awesome and I'm actually really fond of that tremolo arm. Dano pro is just kind of a signature guitar though haha, such a blocky shape.

Someday I'll get my dream bass. It will be an alder jazz bass body with a white finish, black binding, black 4 string hipshot tremolo, ebony fretboard, maple neck with a white finish, black tuners/knobs/etc. I'm thinking either a music man pickup at the bridge and a jazz bass pickup at the neck or a bartolini at the bridge and a sustainer coil at the neck

[QUOTE=dranei;29789781]The dead-on-67 is nice, but I really want it in white. I don't like a lot of the shades they got but the tone is awesome and I'm actually really fond of that tremolo arm. Dano pro is just kind of a signature guitar though haha, such a blocky shape.[/QUOTE] It plays like a beast aswell and its so cheap! Mines in red but do they even do a white one? the tremolo arm is alright but it made my guitar go out of tune so I decided to take it off but the whole bridge just bust into little bits haha

[QUOTE=TheGuru;29753117]if you've got 5 whole mm sticking out just grab it with a pair of pliers and unscrew it[/QUOTE] well I didn't really checked if it was 5mm, probably less , but I've tried multiple times with pliers ( actually 3 different ones) and none could get a grip on it, like the metal is too soft and just gets destroyed a lil more when trying to unscrew it. My dad said to drill through the screw, might try that, or else i'll just use a buffer to buff the outside part, and screw another one beside it (got some smaller ones this time)
