Yeah... seems the soapbars wern't traditionally compensated? Pain in the hole

Nope. It's 50mm pole spacing, which seems to be the only spacing you can get on the metal ones. Cheers though

Got a pair of p90s and can't live with the plastic covers. I managed to get a chrome plated matal one for the brige ok, but can't seem to find one for the neck.
Anyone know where I can get one with a 48mm pole spacing??

Was thinking myself that cream might be nice if it's a soft cream with matching radio knobs perhaps?

Liking the look of thier tremelos

A bit more chrome to match the tuners would be good, but saying that... fucking sweet

I does look like a hole but if you look closely you can see a thin line of light hitting the edge closest to the camera. I'd say sticker.... Might be covering a hole though?

I've seen that in mahogany where the grain disapears in patches like this. Not sure it's a repair?

Wow... looks way nicer than the one you posted earlier. Lovely

Yup, pretty wacky shape. Usually the kinda of thing I don't like, but in this case I do. Really like the scratchplate design you came up with. Don't think I've seen one quite like it. Nice

Looks lovely

very nice.... Always fancied the Mary Kay finish on a tele. Might try this when/if I make one

yup... It really puts you on edge when you get a kick out of a router. Did it the other week and it jumped and hit another bit of the wood which near exploded. Couldn't stop thinking if it had been my hand. Been a tad shy of it since

Sounds pretty good in the Youtube clips I looked at. Might look into building something along those lines?

I'd say it's not a great idea... most twelve strings are built like tanks so they can cope with the increased tension of the extra strings. Your idea would work fine perhaps for a while but it will almost definately rip it's self to pieces in due course. Also you'd have to do fair bit of work, perha...

process I always use is to - square everything up and thickness the neck. - cut the fret slots (ruler, scalpel, japanese fret saw and carpenters square) - shoot the fingerboard to size and shape the heal - shape the headstock - install the truss rod along a centre line of the squared neck wood (I al...

Was in a guitar shop years ago and there was this really good jazz guy trying out these types of guitars. No Harley Bentons right enough, but although really cheap in comparison to the Epiphones he keep going back to trying Ibanez models again and again. Think he tried the Gibsons and a few others t...

Looks good. No need for mine then.

I read on Wicipedia that it's 3 inches longer than a P-Bass, and as you say the bridge is righ down the bottom so I think it must be a longer scale length? Or something weird. It's tuned differently so not sure how that comes into play?

I tied it a few times with different photos but that red one seems to have the least amount of distortion from perspective so I went with that one. Did you manage to find out the max width of the body? Here's a small version of what I've done so far. You'll have to make adjustments for the neck pock...

I could use the top down picture and if you know the max width and length I could do one on Illustrator easy enough and send you a PDF?
