Nice job. I have been building Strats with Warmoth 24.75 scale necks for a little while. They are some of my favorite players.

big can of krylon brand spray paint from walmart bought for less than $5. woulda turned out better but i leftit outside and bugs flew into it and i put to many heavy coats on and it dripped baaaad. i feel a sharpie was the perfect headstock design choice along with mispelling believe

That guitar cracks me up! If it played great, I'd rock it. It would be my ultimate "beater"...like, for beating up idiots and picking up chicks in the dirtiest dive bars. No case? No problem. Toss it in the trunk and let it ride. Maybe end a set Cobain-style someday by sending it through a set of speakers on stage. When you don't care, the possibilities are endless! :lmao:

idk about 'great'. it makes the noise id expect from it. its mostly my experiment guitar. its a p.o.s. and it knows it. upside is it dont look bad on video.... or from a distance... or blindfolded...

OK guys, let's be friendly. Remember, I'm the one who's supposed to be rude.

Sometimes I even sand the guitar a little bit before I paint it.

No need for a demonstration, you've already proven yourself.

I was just bowing out to your pointed comeback, which I genuinely thought was a tad humorous (i.e. "good comeback!")

However, I see you've got a bone to pick and aren't taking things nearly as lightly.

In that case, let's get something clear...you've been the only "knucklehead" to grace these pages, if there truly is one.

No one else is calling people idiots but you. You were incorrect from the start and no matter how much stubbornness or insult you impart on behalf of your stance, it doesn't make you right ;)

My bad, the ever present filter of the internet caused me to misinterpret the intention of your post. I guess we'll just agree to disagree on the nomenclature. Length doesn't matter anyway, right?

I have a shortscale, but my wife's never played a longer one, so she's perfectly content with mine ;)

Personally I think the width matters more than anything. I think a nice thick D is slightly harder, but much more pleasing to wrap my hands around than other profiles, but that's just me. I've seen a lot of C men in guitar center before.

The thing a lot of guys don't understand is even with an S-curve or too much back-bow, you can still get just the right amount of action. Especially if they get fat toward the base.

My problem is I only have one nut. But I have a full set of locking clamps and screws for it. I just hate when a hair gets caught in there while I tighten down.

What would she think of it scalloped. And headless.

Ritual seppuku, Israeli-style, performed on 6th attempt while extremely drunk?
