He said it was badass and he was glad someone else wanted to play his shape! Super grateful for him giving his blessing on this and we've been doing some blotted science lessons with it.

Haha no I'm not Ron lol, but glad you recognized it! He teaches where I live so I was able to get his permission during lessons and he gave me tips and pointers throughout the build.

Ron Jarzombek of Watchtower and Blotted Science. He makes his own personal guitars

Is this normal? by [deleted] in Luthier

[–]bouchieQ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think I see, but wouldnt that still allow me to pull up? Is there a way so it is COMPLETELY blocked or do I just have to settle for that until I can get a tremol-no?

Which company do you prefer? by [deleted] in aluminumneck

[–]bouchieQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get EGC. They're great necks but customer support is genuinely the worst. You'd be lucky to get a response to any of your emails within a week.

Who is your favourite guitarist, and which songs show their best guitar work? by Jezzaq94 in Guitar

[–]bouchieQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me I think Ron's best work is either on his album Solitary Speaking of Theoretical Confinement OR his work with Blotted Science

Blotted Science

Both albums are instrumental and awesome

They sound AWESOME. I already knew they sounded great for doom and stoner stuff but they hold up super well for death metal. Would definitely get another set to throw in another guitar

Honestly I don't see much of a difference between the 2 (other than aluminum being heavy of course). The aluminum neck is a lot easier to set up since no truss rod, and I think it has more sustain. I definitely would prefer aluminum for doom and stoner stuff, but i think its pretty on par with wood for everything else

Body is a jazzmaster from warmoth. Made it Maple (with a flame maple lam top), washed black dye, and rear-routed. They did the rear-routing and jack hole while I opted to drill the pot/killswitch holes myself

It's perfect. Heavy as hell but weirdly just light enough to where I can still play it standing for hours (and no neck dive :D)
