[noodleplugerine]

Didn't he say he was talking to a Luthier buddy of his?

[BloodMountain]

[sambo]

Didn't he say he was talking to a Luthier buddy of his?

might have done....?

if he did it would make sense to at least look into that option a bit further.. get a quote in terms of both price and time... e.t.c. e.t.c.

ahahahahahahaah You guyw are pretty Funny and educative
Q:p
i didnt know that you guys from UK are so funny
ahahahahahahahaha
well, i´m having gas for more than one guitar model, but i mainly want to find my personal specs and setting in a guitar, so i´ll repeat the pattern on the otehr models,just changidn model and shape.but keeping the same characters.
what i don´t know is what pickusp will go through them. but,instead of follow my own Advice,this time i´ll follow tim´s advice and i´ll get BKPS as he suggested
Warpig, and Painkiller for the next guitars
Q:p

now getting back to the topic.. in fact,floyd rose is something i really Enjoy
that Bee,os moskito sound when pull out a natural harmonic on a fret and pull the whammy bar upside .. it´s almost an orgasm.
a larger scale is required for downtuned madness.
i´ll need 2 guitars with custom scale,27' for downtuned madness.
one for B and anotehr one for C.
C is my favorite Personal tune..but the standard for me is D .
Q:p
I like Wood finishes and see thru/translucent ones.. like Blood Red, Blue and/or Green.
or a Totally White or black.

22 or 24 frets. that doesn´t matter, Unless if it´s going toinfluence the string tension.and i like it very tight. as well as the bass.
bass and string tension are two details that i want as tight as a ratts ass.
Q:p
then there´s that bridge Thing.. and,i think thats it.
Mahogany ,poplar or Korina Body. (in fact somethign that will give me a darker tone, without sounding muddy. and of course a pretty resonant wood)

the floyd rose can be either schaller,or gotoh or OFR. the better price/quality for my Short money. ahahaha
BKPS As the main pickups, of course.   And.. tuners can be gotoh also,or grover,or sperzel. this time i´ll experience with Lockign tuners.
Q:)

JP

[WITH FULL DISTORTION]

His prices are pretty reasonable.
hé sasking 1500 to deliver it to me.
but without pickups.
so, it means that it will have a set of BARE KNUCKLES

Q:P

and it will have Brazilian ONLY wood
like Imbuia,Freij´,Rouxinho, Guajuvira, canjerana, araucaria, tauari, marfim,
Q:p
JP

[noodleplugerine]

Hmmmm 9 piece neck ^_^

Very nice stuff, and a great price it seems.

And usually It's better things don't get pickups in, cos I know you'll want to upgrade to BKPs straight away :P

[WITH FULL DISTORTION]

Of course i´ll
but theres a bad thing i need to confess
I´ll not get rid of my EMGS
ahahahahahahahahahahahaha

For info; the bridge position on the body, which if I understand you correctly is at the hub of the problem, is influenced by the number of frets more than the scale length. To make the last fret as accessible on a 24 fret as it is on a 22 fret neck for a given body design the whole scale length (bridge to nut) has to move about 20mm to place the 24th where the 22nd would normally be. Thus pulling the bridge closer to the neck pocket.

Cheers,

Hails BOB, Thank´s for the Help Man
i´ll read it carefully when i come back from school. cause right now i´m in a hush. ahahahahahah
but,just a little question.. By doing what you told me, will that affect the Intonation of the instrument!?!?!

Indeed it would. Quite severely.

[Bob Johnson]

Indeed it would. Quite severely.

You've misunderstood me. I didn't say anyone should move anything. If you read it carefully my note merely says that for a given body design a 24 fret version will position the bridge approximately 20mm (depending on scale length) closer to the neck pocket than it would be on a 22 fret version. Very basic mathmatics!

Part of the original issue was the bridge position on various guitars followed by a number of references from various folks about scale length.

All I was trying to say is that the number of frets and the point at which the neck joins the body are far more important than scale length in this respect.

Cheers,  :)

My response was basically, on a 24 fret guitar if you moved the bridge back 20 mm so that it's where it would be on a 22 fret guitar, you would muck up the intonation :p
