My Nailbombed Ibanez RGT42DX
Calibrated Nailbombs plus two extra pots for independant volume and tone control and five way pickup selector is now a three way output selector, so it's wired as per a Les Paul.
All pots are the pull/push switching type so neck volume pulls up to switch neck pickup wiring from series to parallel, both tone pots pull up to switch from .022mf orange drop cap to .047mf orange drop cap....bridge volume pot pulls up to switch bridge out of phase with neck
All of this makes for a wide range of sounds and it's an absolute TONE MONSTER......best sounding guitar I've ever had..by a mile 8)

Well this is my no. 1 just been BKPed as of today :D Very please with the result, instantly became a tone machine. It bleeds tone now. Just that i am not that satisfied with the "Battle-worn covers" did not turn out as great as the pic i saw.

Sori for the cr@ppy image, handphone camera

Well i like it but i expected it to be more like this

Looks more real and battled but still thats secondary, its the tone that im totally head over heels for. It bleeds tone.

And ya so sori, its a Mule with Alnico V in it.

They do look pretty far off.. :?

The strings look aligned way over toward the treble side of your fretboard - yet you have tons of room on the bass.

Does the top E string slip off the neck on a wide vibrato?

Don't take this the wrong way but could you post a picture of your nut (oh err) :oops:

Cheers.

It also looks like the scratchplate is aligned slightly too far to the bass side - which is making matters worse.

I think its the angle of the photo.

FELINEGUITARS · « **Reply #104 on:** June 16, 2007, 10:51:48 AM »

If polepieces are in wrong place consistently, then scratch plate is wrongly positioned

If strings are too far over to one side of neck then nut and bridge are out of line with respect to the centre of the neck
