    Guitars Built by Members of SS.org [pic heavy]

    I can finally post here: it's my first build, and it's as far from perfect as it gets. i drilled through the top, the frets still need work, and the tuners are misaligned, but man am i proud that it works! specs: oak body with maple top, maple/walnut neck thru, 28.5 to 26.5 inch scale...

    How to get this finish?

    you stain it black, sand it back until most of the black stain is gone and it only stays in the more open grained parts on the burl, then stain it blue, then put on a laquer or oil or whatever you feel like.

    7string Fanned fret Neck through siggi braun/avenger build

    well, mine doesn't even have a chip breaker... it's just blade, then cap iron. the handles are disgusting plastic, the depth and angle adjustment is horrible (it requires you to take off the cap iron every time you want to adjust the depth...) blade sharpening needs to be done anyways all the...

    7string Fanned fret Neck through siggi braun/avenger build

    Well, first, i would like to inform you that i now have a plane again. it's crappy, not a fraction as good as my mourned old one, but it's a plane, and a shit plane is better than no plane. Secondly i've made a discovery that revolutionized my guitar playing and my understanding of...

    Jackson for 2014

    i need to get a good jackson! i love my schecter, and it beats the shit out of my charvel '92 avenger and my js32t kelly in terms of sound, build quality and action, but the jackson neck profile is simply perfect! with the compound radius added it is just the nonplusultra for my hands! any...

    Extended Range Racism

    on the argument: i think people who buy an 8 string and only use the 2 lowest would actually be better off with a baritone 6 due to the longer scale and the wider selection of pickups/hardware, but the second you play the slightest bit of leadwork or chords, the 8 string makes total sense. i...

    7string Fanned fret Neck through siggi braun/avenger build

    veeeeeery dark blue on the sides, progressively lighter towards the middle. so basically i'll stain the whole thing black, sand back in the middle and then hit the entire thing with blue, so that it's !almost! black at the edges.

    7string Fanned fret Neck through siggi braun/avenger build

    hmm, haven't thought about red really, but the idea appeals to me. i initially wanted to go for a really dark blue burst with gold hardware. if i were to make it red i'd definitely go for a rather dark shade, and i'd probably go for a burst as well. i don't want it to be too brightly colored...

    7string Fanned fret Neck through siggi braun/avenger build

    broke my plane, ....ed up my saw, realised that i don't need a body break angle if i go with a strat style multiscale bridge, and last but not least it's too cold to glue in my shop... what a shit day... but well, at least the problem with the break angle is fixable, it is now definite that...
