I think I must have started an order then stopped either because something else came up or the next item I wanted was out of stock. Then when I went back a week or more later I forgot to check that th...

Well then @boo maybe you should lay off the imported candy paint, Mirka sanders, glitter sparkles, airbrush kits etc @mattbeels now you're just being silly.

@luthierik Short scale basses are typically between 30 and 32 inches, which should work out about right from my rough calculations based on what I see in the pictures. Personally, I'd also consider mo...

That is definitely the guitar for someone who's in something a Sweet tribute band, it's Glamtastic, doubly so now it's been buffed.

It could just be the angle of the photos, but those bridge posts don't look symmetrical to the centre line to me.

If I'm calculating this properly then roughly speaking with the body as it is, you're looking at the same scale length of neck but only 17 frets, or the same number of frets but about a 31 inch scale ...

Looking at videos online it can be hard to tell which way the wheel is going, but the side towards you going down seems to be the norm.That's certainly how the StewMac one works (it's in the instructi...

@boo can I hold you responsible for anything goes wrong?? would be handy!!!! @steveadams After his pre-unboxing video windup I say it's the least he deserves.

@boo A pre-unboxing video? You absolute tease!

@chrisot Thanks. Other than the mask/ventilation thing, any other advice?

@chrisot I've got the starter pack of Rustins for my finish experiments (I'm going to be trying different topcoats, stain, sealer and filler combinations on small test pieces, so I think the small qua...

@rocknroller912 Billiard balls used to be made of celluloid, which is a mixture of Nitro Cellulose and CamphorIt's not only flammable, it can also explode on impact Which, given the nature of billards...

@boo, good point, indeed I just looked at the "manual" (It's one page of instructions) of that spray shelter and it says "WARNING : Explosion Hazard. Do not spray flammable paints or materials while u...

it requires A. Sunshine (not a reliable 52 weeks of the year commodity in the UK) and B. Open air exposure to the sunshine (when available). @darrenking Solarez will also cure with UV lamps, they eve...

@darrenkingI was looking into it and Homeright have a couple of units which are basically pop up tents for that purpose (the small and medium ones actually fold up with no assembly required). Interest...
