    Roasted maple neck would really top it off, or make existing neck aged...Great job.

    I was actually thinking of doing the same thing with a Chinese Strandberg kit. Hoping to do this soon enough as I’ve never built a guitar before and would love to make my own especially as a Strandberg style guitar. Your design really gives me more of a motivation to do so. Your design is amazing.

    Why can't both live edges be kept? I see you went for the 2/3 wood 1/3 epoxy look but hypothetically speaking, could you have kept some of the edges from both ends? If the bark is a part of the edge of the guitar, can it be epoxy'd to stay on?

    Thanks for this video, I am curing some spalted maple for a couple Telecaster style builds in the Spring. How thick is your piece of spalted beech for your top? It looks thicker than 1/4" ( 6.35mm ). Thank you.

    • @horsefighter_69
      @horsefighter_69 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh, awesome. I usually use tops around 10mm thick, around 3/8”. Also depends on the thickness of your body, I like to end up with a guitar around 40-45mm thick

      You can buy drill bits that are long enough to reach the control cavity from the pickup cavities. Usually a 6mm will do

    I fucking hate gaming laptops. Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their new gaming laptop to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.

    I'm waiting for my Chinese Steinberger (Chynberger?) from DHGate to arrive to me in the US. It's been going back and forth in China for the past 10 days. I wonder if I'll ever get it. How are those Chinese tremolos? I'm wondering if there's a way to retro fit a Floyd Rose type on the body. I'm guessing some wood need to be added and then some new holes drilled.

    • @horsefighter_69
      @horsefighter_69 ปีที่แล้ว

      The stock tremolo systems are alright, they stay in tune ok if you don't abuse them. Fitting a Floyd Rose is not super difficult, you'll have to put some wood back in, and then route out everything as usual.
