Sure did ๐ I'm not a guitar tech so I probably did a bad job but it plays now and I've got like .06 on my low E (it's actually a C right now but you get it)
The fret level helped ๐ now it's just sweet, plays great, feels awesome, and it's beautiful. The whole package. I was really scared that I messed up setting the neck, this project gave me a lot of confidence though.
Holy shit dude that's legit as fuck!
That's a tremendous resource thank you so much
It is a mahogany neck, I sanded it to 400 and it feels good! I gotta get something on there though. I'm going to dry tung oil I think they sell it at Lowe's
Mostly doom, stoner, little bit of sludge
No expensive pickup can make up for my utter lack of guitar skill ๐
It's a kit so they're hella generic ones, I'm trying to decide on a real set. I'm going back and forth on warpigs or draigs but I'm always open to recommendations
The action is stupid high. It's a kit so I expected to have to do some fret work but some of the top frets are really tall. It wouldn't even play any lower and I still have buzz where it's at. I've got some tools coming in the mail, I'm hoping I can get it to play as good as it looks ๐ค๐ค I don't have any other pictures but I'll take a couple when I'm back at my desk
That's sick dude wow! I like the stripes over the wood it looks sweet.
What you're seeing here is 4 layers of rattle can satin lacquer and then I wet sanded with 2000 grit to knock down the orange peel. The dye job is sage green Rit dye, it came out this blue grey color that I wasn't necessarily targeting but it looks sick nonetheless, I am definitely not complaining. I left the neck unfinished , I have to do something with the headstock but I hate the feeling of finished necks so I left it raw. I ordered some tools to level and dress the frets I think it'll be better after that ๐ค๐ค
I grow all kinds of plants including weed and really hot peppers... but also roses
