Re: Who's working on a build right now? Let's see your stuff!
I bought this Korean import BC Rich a few weeks ago off CL for $40. It's missing a bridge and I can't find one for a decent price in the USA. I would have to wait a month to get one shipped in from China. Too bad because this could be a real weapon of mass destruction with a blackout metal bridge, 1/2 power switch and Artec 5-way boost.Last edited by idsnowdog; 06-09-2015, 11:57 AM.

Just finished coloring the grain and spraying clear coats.

I couldn't dig out enough grain to get that sandblasted look, but it is close.

Here is the short of it. Swamp ash top that was wire brushed to dig out the grain. Paint or stain then seal it. I used silver acrylic craft paint mixed with timbermate neutral grain filler rubbed into the grain then wiped off the top with a damp rag.
Man my bench is a mess! How embarrassing.Last edited by phred; 06-10-2015, 02:14 PM.

Well...the Billy Bo Jupiter Thunderbird Build fell through due to a defective body from an eBay deal upon which I got screwed...I had all the parts with the exception of a body (and now tuning pegs) so I salvaged what I had and picked up an '87 RG440 Body to go with the HM Neck...a Fender CS '54 Neck and SD Antiquity Texas Hot RWRP are on the way to fill the Single Coil Slots with the Pre-2004 SD "Evenly Voiced Harmonics" Trembucker in the Bridge, a DiMarzio 500k Volume/Fender TBX Tone/DiMarzio 5 Way Strat Selector Switch...only problem is every time I look at that Ruby Burst Finish it's screaming MAPLE FRETBOARD NECK at me!!!

Seller (wendiramone501) balked at return/refund even though they claimed a return policy, and, unfortunately, because I had begun painting it the seller denied any issues with the route defect and argued that she shouldn't have to take back an altered item...of course eBay in their ultimate wisdom bought the sellers story and backed her...so I lost my money on the body purchase with the seller not obligated to return the body after I sent it back per eBay instructions for retuning an item for refund.Last edited by muttznmongrelz; 06-11-2015, 06:52 PM.MuttznMongrelz

Ah. Sucks.
I can understand not taking back an altered item, but it being mis-routed that badly... and you shipped it back? Much suckage."Screw regulations. Bring the noise."
