My Builds

Too clean...

Probably play like garbage...

[jhale667]

Now why would I criticize a parts guitar, in a parts guitar thread if its on topic?

...Because you're a douche like that?

[Diamondjimi]

Too clean? WTF? ....splain!

Yes, please elaborate for us Elvis...you're basing this opinion on a couple of photos?

What, like "if you polish them, they must suck"?

Hahaaa, too clean probably play like garbage...

Hmmm, let me see here...... A guitar built by the owner , fine tuned to each and every degree of said owner's desire's and spec's.... Yeah ,probably garbage Jay.

Time to head on down to the Guitar Center and grab yerself a log off the rack
and knock off that custom "jive" you've been wasting your time and money on...

Not to get in the middle of that one, but nearly all my guitar had some kind of buckle rash, Levis rivet rub, sweat-smears/cumstains/bloodstains/urine/beer/spaghetti etc and all Jay's stuff look like they're straight from the paint shop.

Even the guitars I do play -and very little of- they got play smudge on 'em and these are replacements from what I lost in 2003. That's five almost six years of playing, and none look as clean as yours.

You freaks know me...

They are very nice looking guitars. That doesn't make them sound all that great...

One observation is that the RBW one has a nice looking neck. The others look like foreign junk with the truss rod holes painted...

Well sure your one and only guitar (Charvette-bolt on) probably would get messed up and gooey cuntsidering the busking you do at the "Y" men's club..

Jealous? Sounds like you're having difficulty keeping the "vette" clean living under the overpass ,eh?!

Sounds like someone's got a touch of Hale envy...

Thanks. And again, it's this technique called "polishing", and occasionally cleaning and conditioning the fretboards. Give it a try...

Seems that way...

[indeedido]

Polishing does work wonders. I highly recommend it myself

[jhale667]

...And amazingly, with regular usage, it'll keep even a beat-to-shit Krylon finish looking shiny, for over 20 years... :eek:



Though I have re-colored the Garbage Pail kid sticker on her by hand a couple of times over the years...:0

.. I like quiche.

[jhale667]

Of course you do.

[Diamondjimi]

Just noticed how close the volume pot is to the pickup on the white one.
Much too close for me.
