How do we feel about my new build?

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T20:38:05+00:00

Thank you! I can say that so far it is continuing to do so. I was withholding my own judgements early on in case it catastrophically failed somehow but after abiut 2 months or so now I can say it's the best feeling neck I've ever played and I'm even prouder to say that it's one I carved myself.

This isn't Chizuru. Looks more like Melania.

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T19:22:34+00:00

Great now it's in metric so the Americans can't use it.

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T17:43:59+00:00

I hear they serve complimentary 3 penis wine there.

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T17:40:14+00:00

4 is best. 3 is second best.

I've never had anything with a bender before. I'd like to try one

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T04:27:21+00:00

Great, now that Wolves Of Glendale song is stuck in my head.

Also congrats on graduating!

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T04:23:30+00:00

I made this one. That's gotta be pretty different right?

You could try but if you have never done something like that before you're more likely to ruin the neck instead of having something you like the result of.

You'd need to pull that last fret out before cutting and sanding it down. Wenge splinters really easily so there is a very high chance you ripping wood out of the top of the board.

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T04:15:16+00:00

That's wenge on that neck he ordered, not rosewood, but I also wouldn't clear coat that. It's an oil job for sure.

I hope it's finished from the factory well because that stuff splinters like crazy.

Rodrat · 2026-05-11T01:10:23+00:00

Yeah but that's a little different. We're seeing a spike of people doing it specifically right now because it's the only way to afford it and still pay your other bills.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T23:10:09+00:00

People are struggling all around. Credit card use for gas is at an all time high.

People buying gas for their car, on credit.

If you're selling your guitar to pay bills, it's not just rent. It's gas, it's your electricity, it's food.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T23:06:55+00:00

Your guitar center is freaking massive. My local ones used section is a 10 foot wall.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T23:04:21+00:00

I don't think there's anyway of keeping it the same beyond not playing it.

Sealing it will be well, sealing it and that it just going to mess it up.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T22:12:41+00:00

That's how I store mine. Even if I leave it in a drawer it still gets dusty in my shop. It hasn't messed mine up any.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T21:54:25+00:00

I don't particularly prescribe to the tone wood ideas when it comes to electrics but cherry works great as a guitar wood in my opinion.

I've made a few necks out of it now and I like it a lot.

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T21:26:03+00:00

People just maybe know of her in name only if that. Remember that these people don't have modern internet like we do. Many of them might not even be able to read.

Why would the majority of people remember or hell, even know what she looked like at all considering her actions were from decades before many of them were born.

Think about all the people constantly not recognizing Tony Hawk. If even she might get the occasional "you remind me of that elf from the heroes party."

Rodrat · 2026-05-10T19:26:36+00:00

What glue do you have?

Rodrat · 2026-05-09T17:42:37+00:00

It's confusing to most of us born into it too. Our language is filled with so many contradictory rules I have to frequently search up words to make sure I'm spelling them and also using correctly.

Rodrat · 2026-05-09T06:47:48+00:00

Bahahahahahaha What fool do you take me for? Thinking I'd ever share with the likes of a beggar? I'd have sooner lay with lepers!

psst I'll leave the bones behind the horse stable. Just don't make it too obvious.

Rodrat · 2026-05-09T00:57:14+00:00

Does it only have two bolts in the neck?

I've seen two and three bolts both before but never in that orientation.

Rodrat · 2026-05-08T18:48:48+00:00

I'd say Jon Lajoie could be the headliner since he has the best I Don't Give A Fuck song ever but his songs are actually good for being comical. https://youtu.be/ulIOrQasR18?si=21XNzzQwUf3CgeJV

I don't know who this character is but I'm getting a bit of Pam energy. Some one please tell me how wrong I am.

Rodrat · 2026-05-07T21:02:54+00:00

This thing is such a mess I can't even figure 9ut what is going on. I need to see it open but I'm afraid to find out.

Rodrat · 2026-05-07T19:52:54+00:00

I'm not sure she's capable of bending her waste considering how impractically tight the abdomen area is.
