Might be why it's there - buyer speced it and then decided to change something, or W didn't quite do it right (rare, but I hear they're actually human over there too despite indications of their godhood), so they plopped it on the showcase. My custom neck that I accidentally clicked "Macassar"...

I just... holy... alright I'm just gonna let it do the talking.

Zebrawood... check. L5S... check. Hollow... check. It's official. I'm jealous.

I was wonderin where it went :dontknow: Happens to the best of us though. Gotta love the "oh crap" feeling you get when you realize what you just did, especially when there was a confirmation window too. I can't tell you how many times I've sat there and said to the computer "Yes, I really want...

If I'm not mistaken, this isn't the only one - he also made one for Bon Iver to play. (Listening in to a conference call right now, can't watch the video again.)

This is pretty cool. https://www.facebook.com/BushmillsUSA/app_208195102528120

Is this why they pumped out a bunch of firebird necks into the showcase, in preparation?

This is still one of my favorite videos of all time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veg63B8ofnQ (It's a parody of this video.)

He meant heavy as in it weighs a lot. Chambering helps because it makes it lighter.

Yeah, dat wenge was sexy.

Black to clear seems to work really well on the woods that you'd otherwise want just clear on - especially the BK with orange stripes. Gives it a little more depth than the typical clear coat.

Sounds like you just want this: Assuming the switch you have is normal DPDT On-On, which works like the one in the top left here: If you have a multimeter, you can put it on the continuity setting and check which terminals are connected in which switch positions.

Yeah I wasn't sure if it would be too busy or take attention away from the body, but I think with the plain fretboard and no inlays it works out perfectly.

Thanks everyone. The HCP is okay. I think it's more useful than having two tone pots at least. I'll have to play around with it more and see if I can get my amp and pedals set up for how I'd like them with this guitar. Only ever really played with one guitar before, so dealing with a setup for...

Not sure I'm a huge fan of them completely clean, but put a little dirt on them and they're absolutely perfect. And that's really why I picked 'em - this isn't for playing jazz.

So a year ago I begged, borrowed, and stole (not so much of the stealing though) my way to getting this body off the showcase before someone else snatched it up. At the time I was jobless and looking for a new city to move to. So last Spring I finally got that job, and then I saved up some...

Hmm.. this thread makes me really want to pick up a few cheap parts off the showcase and dye the body myself.

Isn't every day something that we'll only see once?  :dontknow:

Well crap... I was thinking about getting a new neck for my bass... but it's getting cold and I'm going to need a wetsuit for surfing soon... Maybe I can just shiver it out for a while...

So I was looking around at Warmoth's site, and I noticed this on their "Neck Finishes" page: Is this also true for raw necks? IANAWW (I am not a wood-worker), but I feel like for many of their raw woods like Wenge or Pau Ferro any oil would have trouble penetrating the wood at all, with how...
