That is a good omen. I know. I think it’s a sign. After all of this, my preferred dremmel attachment for cutting which was missing yesterday (and why I opted to hand cut which I’m certain lead to the breakage...) just magically appeared in a box of parts. so. It’s being left as it is. in other news. Bridge and Machine heads arrived. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 Will the excitement never end?! Bridge is on. Don’t ask about the black screws...so mundane is the story I cannot even be bothered...in a side note, chrome screws on the pickup now...as it should be. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had no time. in saying that, I have started the neck pocket reshape, which hasn’t been as straightforward as I’d like. Will start again tonight. Currently looks like this... And all of the other bits arrived today (including @KiOgon loom which looks amazing!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Well. Bum. Back plates on the Wilkinson tuners foul each other. option 1. file down, bit scrappy. option 2. buy some hipshot ultra lite licensed at £60 sell Wilkinson tuners.

AndyTravis Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 The pickup spec on the p is wrong, it’s a hot for p which is about 21/22k. Its the only thing I wanted different to my attitude, I wanted a tone control for the P too so that I had a stock P option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Volume and tone per pickup, like a les Paul...originally the idea made sense. Now you’ve placed doubt in my mind hahaha. @KiOgon knew what I meant when we spoke about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
