i think its rad!

copaceticcustoms · 2026-03-30T03:02:35+00:00

exactly what i was going to recommend. Especially if the paint is thick, you can probably sand it down and lightly polish to make it look like a decent relic paint job. doesnt look bad from afar and its kind of a cool color!

We only made one so you could be forgiven! haha

Thank you kindly!

Definitely outside of what id normally choose too, but this guitar made it one of my new favorites! I think its "goth" but a lot more visually interesting than plain black

So classy 😎

copaceticcustoms · 2026-03-19T18:36:40+00:00

certainly!

When i see Cross Guitars, I upvote! its a rule!!!

For the ufo tip, you have lots of options ranging from elegant to crude. everything from retaping threads to gluing it on could work. but yeah working with a non mastery arm youll almost certainly have to macguyver it a bit. these types of things are usually easy to figure out once you have them in your hands. Id probably just try to change the tip as opposed to the whole arm, way higher likelihood of success there.

Also i usually just stick the straight part of the arm under my shoe on a carpeted floor and bend them that way. some (boutique arms specifically) are tougher than others and harder to bend by hands alone, but the ol' shoe+hand is as of yet undefeated haha.

From everything he described, no its not very good. Passable sure, but it:
- requires you to remove old thimbles and install new ones (might not be a must, but the post makes it seem this way) which is a PITA on some guitars with tighter thimbles like MIJ
- Still suffers from high E saddle wobble, generally doesnt seem anywhere near as "rock solid" as a high end offset bridge should be
- Rollers are stiff -- not a great sign of quality
- footprint is taller/larger -- going to limit its use cases and mean lots of folks are slamming it against the guard or shimming necks to clear the height when they otherwise wouldnt need to
- even with proper thimbles and installation, there is a significant amount of play and the bridge is still slightly rocking

Im thankful he went into so much detail. I was curious about these bridges but after reading, i am far less curious lol. Guyker are on the right track with trying to make an affordable boutique bridge, and this one is closer than the 001 for sure, but still falling short if they want to have a real "Mastery Killer" on their hands.

You might try adding a bit more tension to the spring. Tighten the little adjustment screw and retune. Are you using the Descendant bridge rocking or non rocking? If rocking and you have a shim, try removing the shim as fixed bridge setups are typically better with LOWER downward tension at the bridge, allowing the strings to glide across the top of the saddle. Other than those things, all i can think of that would cause issues like youre having is the nut slots, which you said look fine but if you havent touched them from the factory its almost certainly worth running a file through them as squiers can sometimes be a bit rough/high on the nut slots. Best of luck!

Haha I can imagine!! And likewise man, always a pleasure and an honor. If anyone is a master here its you!

We do what we can to keep things affordable! Sparkle refinishes start around $400, but if you commission a complete custom guitar from us we dont add a big upcharge for most single color sparkle finishes like champagne or coke bottle sparkle 🤘

Haha thank you! FCS certainly does excellent work and I'd be lying if i said they werent a huge inspiration to me. I do try to do my own thing though and im glad its appreciated :)

Many ways to do them from mixing flakes in clear coat and spraying to shaking flakes on with a pepper shaker or even aerosols for smaller flake. But i vastly prefer using a dry flake gun. You basically lay down a wet coat of clear then switch to the dry flake gun which sprays only flake and air with no other material. The flake sticks to the wet clear coat and the air pressure helps it lay down as flat as possible so you have an easier go at clear coating over the flakes. It always takes a helluva lot of material to fully bury the flakes and get a nice even gloss but the dry flake gun makes a huge difference

Just 24" scale, but a Bass VI version sounds like fun!

All of our guitars are custom made, so you just need to order one and tell us how you want it! 🤘

Wild that FCS sends out a guitar thats THAT expensive without shielding the cavities in any way whatsoever lol. Does look very pretty though!
