Meron din ako ditong lumang Bass Body, ganyan din yung wood nya, masyadong visible at malalaki yung mga grains. kaya nahirapan ako nung irerepaint ko sana, kaya ayun di ko nalang tinuloy.
I have stated that there are more bad sounding suhrs then there are good ones.
that's some weird grain man. daming pores. it looks familiar but i just can't place where i've seen that kind of wood.
what you need is a pore/grain filler
Yes sir i believe so. kaso waste of time & Money kung ipipilit ko pa eh alam ko naman na olats talaga quality nun, Raon product lang yata kasi yun eh.
or you can look at it this way: its a great learning guitar! i'd build it and make all my mistakes there. once you complete it believe you me, it will be the best sounding guitar you have ever heard! because you built it with your own hands. madali lang i-pore fill yan
PMusic forumers and their crazy ideas wag na tol, baka maispatan ka nila, habulin ka pa pababa sa bundok. take note, may bitbit kang mabigat na kahoy, aabutin ka nila tiyak hehehe.
eto lang reply jan: as in ganyan kalalaki?tol, di ka na makakatakbo nyan!on a side note, legal kaya yan?
sana nga may local wood na pwedeng magandang alternative to ash and alder.
How about yung Pinewood na ginagamit ni sir micsis sa mga tele builds niya?
pine is good. in fact the first fender broadcasters were of pine. rick kelly, the master luthier from NYC builds with it and they sound really good. if you have pine, build with it!
would you know why Fender stopped using pine for their guitar builds bro?
Are they the same as the Pinewoods sa hardware? Meron kasi sa Wilcon depot. lol. They have long Pinewood slabs.
no idea. maybe when they moved to a factory to mass produce guitars ash or alder was the local wood. who knows? but i know of many respected luthiers who make guitars out of pine. tho i don't do electric anymore, if i should own (or make) one it would be of pine. i like it. it's light (i come from the school of "weight kills tone") and i love how it looks. it works easily too.they do?? how thick and how wide? dapat at least 2 inches thick. but i bet it won't be quartersawn but its worth a look see. if i like it i'm going to stash some away rick kelly's bowery pine guitars:http://www.flickr.com/photos/mediawench/4750642996/
Lumber grade might not be appropriate for musical instruments since it's intended for furniture and fixtures. Then again, you never know. Might be worth looking into.What Wilcon branch? I hope it's 2 inches thick and that Wilcon provides woodcutting services.
Sir RJ Do you accept custom jobs? haha nagpagawa kasi ako custom neck body nalang kulang.pa PM naman ng contacts and location thanks
Sorry Saxtone ngayon lang ako naka reply sa post mo. . Well medyo amateur lang ako sa wood working kaya di ako maka accept ng custom jobs . . . Baka mapahiya lang!. . I can see na marami tayo expert luthier sa manila where you could try na magpagawa ng custom body ng guitar. . and from Nueva Ecija pa ako. . .repost ko uli yung guitar. . Medyo pinalitan ko ng neck (Carver evony fretboard) and sanitize ko ng kaunti yung body. . medyo radikal kasi. . . di bagay sa akin . .
