james90 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 logo looks great - were you able to start the finishing? Also, did this have stainless steel frets? I can't remember if I requested the standard material or not... maybe that was the strat neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooglebug Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 i think it was the strat that had nickel silver and this one had stainless. and yes, the neck is curing and the body has the start of colour. i need some black so when i get that i can get the bursts finished and some clear on the bodies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 i think im going to have to burst it. it would be mean to the world not to do itttt also, I can't remember, but have you done any full neck thru guitars yet? I'm having some serious G.A.S. for one of those maybe I should become a bassist can you do a mock up of this? desiree shape with flame top and black binding red burst (same shade as the special inlay guitar) 2x humbucker sized pickups wraparound 510 bridge black hardware or change everything around if you don't think that looks good. I just want a neck thru, but I'm guessing you can't do the back of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooglebug Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 the tri-casters i did were through necks. and im just doing the photoshop now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 that reminds me of the e shape but possibly sexier. Like there was one with a red top and natural back, a custom one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowella Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Every time I open this thread I think I should save up for one of your works. Girlfriend will probably leave me though. Especially, this bass (perhaps in sparkly blue) Also, loving that through neck photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 the tri-casters i did were through necks. and im just doing the photoshop now That with a trans-black back and neck would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 the tri-casters i did were through necks. and im just doing the photoshop now Shiiiit I don't want that. I need that. /MFC If I wanted a 5 piece neck (yes I am considering ordering one), what would you recommend? mahogany and maple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 well, whatever really. it depends what look you want. I'm thinking something like this maple/mahogany/maple/mahogany/maple, with some sort of pinstripe on each side Only question is whether to leave the back natural or not...Phill? I think it could work natural if the wood used for the wings isn't particularly dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 natural on back definitely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I'd like it natural but with a black tint in the clear. I think it'd look slick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic. Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 If the black was a little more subtle that'd work better IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 natural it is. I figure something exactly like that, but with solid black pickups. I'd want the ones with the AF logo and no pole pieces, and I know BKP doesn't do black chrome all other hardware black as well. I think I will be ordering this once the current one is completed.

james90 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 How on earth do you afford this Not sure if that was aimed at me or MFC, but I won't be able to for much longer if I keep it up I have three guitars on my G.A.S. list at the moment, and then MFC told me not to buy anymore unless they can't be passed up. So I have to listen to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
