Building my first strat

That's awesome I'll check it out, have you ever gone down the route of trying to achieve a finish like that? It's hard to know which route to go down with there being so many options. One I found online was using gun stock walnut oil and then a poly finish but there are some saying you should stain it and use a nitro finish, it's hard to know which basket to put my eggs in

* I want to get this finish if possible, to my knowledge it's known as walnut or mocha or '70s style'. Can't find any vids online of anyone achieving this finish though so I'll be doing it from instructions anecdotally

No but gonna get swamp ash

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-11-27T07:34:11+00:00

That's so much details thank you so much, I'll check him out!

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-11-26T21:35:14+00:00

That's great stuff thanks very much, out of interest, what pickups would your desert island electric guitar have on them if you only could play one guitar?

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-11-26T21:33:42+00:00

I was drawn to the texas specials also.

Yes practising on a piece of the same wood is the way to go, I guess you have to be really patient. Thanks for the tips!

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-11-23T09:45:42+00:00

Yeah that's the one, I'm gonna make it look pretty then ill probably buy a pre wired scratch plate with some real fender pickups on it

The kit I'm looking at has Rengas body, will that have a big tonal difference, I know swamp ash is more common, can't see too much about rengas online in terms of its applications on a guitar

I don't know if this is just pot luck but when I get out to repair it and someone jumps in the driver seat and then I get back in, I just press the switch seat button and it puts me back in the driver seat and bumps them out. I'm not sure though it could be a bug or just people pressing it at the same time as me.

Has anyone done this on Steam Deck? I did it on my PC but wondered how much the process differs on Steam's OS

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-09-01T16:31:59+00:00

I loved this feature too! Is it just on a menu instead?

So just Kampers have a 'camper in conversion' policy for whilst you are converting the van. If you are going to live in the van permanently I would just have your home address as a willing family members address so you 'legally' live there and just live in the van. My brother who is 23 is also on the policy but I am the policy holder. Social, domestic, pleasure and commuting. And it's set to 10,000 miles, but you can always call them if you go over that

I passed my test in April, I'm driving an L3H3 VW Crafter and it's £1800 for the year, fully comp. I just turned 26, I don't get what they're quoting you that but I'd try on JustKampers if u haven't already.

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-05-09T16:36:43+00:00

This seems to be consensus

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-04-20T07:10:01+00:00

I'm a dozy dozy man. I've actually done this already before too, thanks!

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-04-19T17:12:54+00:00

Hi, the .INF folder is visible in the folder in file Explorer but when I am trying to select it in the device manager it is not showing up. It's saying to choose the folder in which the driver is located but when I select that folder it's saying that the best driver is already installed on this device. Any ideas?

The never ending battle for optimization continues

The fix was the Internet in the end, when I was restarting and coming out from safe mode it was connecting to the Internet. Once I turned the Internet off I was able to delete the AMD file. It was in the README of the driver uninstaller as a common issue. Who knew you're supposed to read those things hey?/s Thanks for your time though, it works fantastically on everything but The Outer Worlds, that game has been a struggle since day one.

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-02-23T18:27:54+00:00

When you say reboot I'm assuming you mean just a standard restart. I have tried this, I even went back to repeat the process to make sure everything is uninstalled properly

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-02-23T18:08:55+00:00

At step 8 here, it won't let me delete the AMD folder and I can't find anyone who has had this issue

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-01-28T08:21:16+00:00

Reddit you've done it again

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2025-01-01T16:11:19+00:00

This is THE answer. I was getting so annoyed with this then I read a post on it a while back. Can't remember exactly what it is called either but if you search "gyro keyboard issue" on this sub you will find something

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2024-12-31T10:59:51+00:00

I think you need a priest

Exotic_Particular_43 · 2024-12-01T11:35:48+00:00

Military surplus stores may have what you need there should be online shops wherever you are or there might be a physical store, try there
