    Hi...I went to hell and back hahahahahah I measured from the 11th fret to bridge instead on 12th hahaha..i was stoned.(took me 14 hours to fix the problem..i almost gave up).
    But i filled the holes..drilled again..scratched up my bridge but the guitar sounds great without electronics..doesn't go out of tune.
    I drilled for electronics..i might have to fill the damage and paint the guitar a solid colour.

    I might make big caps for the emgs to cover up the damgae of the pick up hole.
    Now I'm gonna roll one and watch again how to install emgs kit.

    Hey, I just did a perfect motorcycle tank paint job and after it was dry I found a big spot where I unknowingly rubbed it on a towel...

    Damn Bluemustard. You are cooking with gasoline! The guitar turns out great (the mids, sustain, and harmonics all sound good). You have Steve Vai sign it and name it. Cool as a Jewel!

    He said Dave taught him everything about the music bussiness.He said everybody wants that brown sound but it's all in the fingers and mind.
    He said Eddie came over to his house and played on his Jem but it sounded like Eddies tone.Same thing with Brian May's guitar.Steve played on it but it didn't have the Brian tone..but when Brian played it it did.
    It's gonna be on NTR Radio Holland. 1st of june and 9th of june.I'll post the link.
    His biggest influence music wise was with Frank Zappa,Joe Satriani , his highschool musci teacher and David Lee Roth.
    Bottom line was forget the bullshit,fame, fear etc and just play music and find your own note.Was all meditation stuff..really nice masterclass.

    It's amazing how much of the tone is in the fingers. The thing I learned is you really have to tap the strings hard to sound like Ed. He really whacks em. I can see why he uses a .009 gauge string set. It works best with his style of playing.

    I notice when I play Led Zeppelin songs I sound too refined. I actually have to slop up my playing to get the Jimmy Page vibe. I have to slow it down a bit and loosen it up or it just does not sound like Zeppelin. You can have the right chords and notes. You can be playing in proper time. The thing is, if you don't touch the strings the right way it just will sound like a different song.

    He talked about Jimmy Page too.
    He also said that you gotta find your own string size..what fits you best.
    Before the Jem he had a strat but the whammy bar only could be pressed down.So he got a screwdriver and scraped out the wood at the whammy bridge so he could pull the whammy up!! Like the floating system..he could do bombdives etc.

    I always heard if you used bigger strings you got a bigger sound. On an acoustic that might be true but on an electric guitar it really isn't. You can sound huge with a light set of strings. I always stuck with .009's I've played that gauge for the past 34 years. Works for me.

    Steve used to write articles for Guitar Player magazine in the early 80's. I remember that Strat of his. He was a bit of an experimenter in his own right. Yeah I read lots of Steve Vai written articles then and I even learned The Attitude song out of the magazine. The good old days. They had little vinyl records you could tear out of the magazine and play on a turntable LOL!

    I just remember good guitars and amps being real expensive in those days. Heck a Les Paul Standard was $1,000 if not more back then. A Marshall 100 watt head was $800 to $1000. Fender Strats were around $600 if I remember right. Equipment now is cheaper on average and you have more choices. I had a silver faced Fender Champ amp I used for years and went from a Memphis Les Paul copy to an Ibanez Roadstar II to a Kramer Baretta. Kept using the Champ amp but boosted the front end. Then I finally got a Marshall half stack. Didn't need it but I had it. The day I got it was almost better than sex. Oh and Boss effects. LOL! Everyone had a few of those.

    I learned about every song on Led Zeppelin I and II. I think songs like Whole Lotta Love and Heartbreaker are good songs to start out on. Not very complicated and really, you have to learn vibe and feel. Even if Jimmy played a bit sloppy he had the vibe down. I think everyone goes through the Jimmy Page portal if they play rock guitar.

    If I'm looking for a guitar player I make them play Link Wray's Rumble. If they don't know it "Get the fuck out!". If they don't know who Link Wray is it's double "Get the fuck out!" You can see if they have vibe. It's full on rock and roll period.



    Ha! This is what I'm talking about! It the vibe man. Jimmy knows it!

    Yup. Oak is also a very open grained wood. I've never heard of it being used in guitars. It will be interesting to see what it will sound like.

    It's not the tone but the look of Oak...

    It's a bit "low rent."
