RE: Pickup pole spacing But - seriously - I've never bothered trying to fine tune the set-up to that extent. @tv101 sadly this is the kind of thing that will bug me! Given I’ve not started the actual build I’ll look for ano... |

RE: BYOEG Online Bandsman 2 @rocknroller912 I just wanted to try something new instead of choosing a more traditional finish. I’ve got loads of ideas and another one came to me actually as I was painting this one. This is what M... |
