    I'm going to cut my nuts - need advice

    There's not that much to it, trust me. I've got rectangle shaped bone blanks from aliexpress bought very cheaply, just to practice on, but they're decent enough to put on a proper build (most bone is from china anyway from what i hear). I also use graphtec blanks, but they are more expensive and...

Les Pauls selling for 50.000$ is ridiculous, this here is just being particular and taking care of your gear...

    RGDIX7MPB: Sanding off See-Through Finish to Natural Wood?

    I don't know if the finish is thick poly or a thin satin coat on that model, but there are different ways of going about it. I'd avoid an electric sander either way, and keep in mind you'll have to do the headstock so it doesn't look weird. You might lose the Ibanez logo in the process, and the...
