I wish I’d asked you for some sound samples now, those are the same pups I chose for my build!

@tej I ve got  a hotslag in the bridge position on my Ibanez. It sounds so much better then the original Ibanez pickup.
Pretty hot pickup. You'll love it

The pickups I used in this Bailey Bandsman are Hot Slags from Iron Gear.

You've never tried searching this forum - even for something that you posted yourself - have you!

I don't think the posts here quite meet the usual definition of "normalised"

@tv101 I have searched for things and I attached tags to all of my threads. 

But I hear what you are saying, there are some very un normal posts 🤣

I try to normalise the data I input so everyone else can make sense of it much easier (I hope).

And that's a good way of keeping a record that you can check back to in later builds.

@tv101 Yep, that’s why I do it, not just for myself but for everyone else, present and future guitar builders. We are creating a big guitar building database really, that’s how I see it, so I try to structure all my uploads as much as possible for human-readability. It’s too chaotic for humans to search through ad hoc, random uploads, it is unnormalised data. I try to normalise the data I input so everyone else can make sense of it much easier (I hope). 😆 

Start a new thread every time you start building a new guitar.

Many times I've reached the stage of doing something on a build, and thought to myself "how did I do that bit on XYZ build?".  I've got loads of pics on my PC of the various builds, but the discipline of posting regular progress pics on a public forum means that I tend to take more pics, and more detailed pics, particularly of the tricky/interesting bits.

Then, when I look back, odds are that I'll find the stage that I'm looking for.

his is amazing to see, I kind of wish I'd posted all my bits n bobs in one thread rather than 'look guys, I did a thing' everytime I make some kind of sawdust.

@cheesewhisk You still can, I use this "Showcase" section to log everything for each build in its own respective thread. Start a thread and put your pictures and comments in every time you do something new. You could go and delete all of those threads and put it all into one. Start a new thread every time you start building a new guitar. 👍 

but there is only one true Master and we all know who that is.

ssshhhhhhhhhhhh
