    Guitar rebuild

    Cheers mate. Disaster today, sprayed the lacquer on and the paint cracked. Looks like will have to start all over again😣
  2. I sprayed it with 4 layers of 2k lacquer. Some orange peel which I need to remove.
  3. I sprayed the body with 4 layers of red.
  4. I sanded the body and filled all cracks and dents. Sprayed with grey primer and wet sanded. Aligned the neck and drilled the holes in the neck.
  5. Bought a maple neck replacement and cut the headstock to a desirable shape.
  6. This Squier seen better days. Too many dents on body and neck. Frets worn out with rusty hardware.
  7. I started a second guitar re build whilst my first one is still in progress. This time it's going to be a Squier strat with re fitted hardware and electronics keeping the strat look. The body has been ee sprayed. New neck fitted as the neck on the second hand Squier I bought seen better days. Worn out frets and not functioning trust rod. Cheaper to replace the neck. I've learnt a lot from the first re build so the paint job costs significantly less. Pictures to follow soon.

    Ran out of lacquer whilst finishing off the second rebuild.

    The final colour scheme has been completed. Still needs lacquer.
  11. I've got nearly three albums worth of my own stuff that will probably never be heard by live audience as I don't have a band. I enjoy playing my songs and composing new stuff. It's three different genres of rock so would "attract" different audience.
  12. I'm a bit dissapointed that tge sale webt on Friday morning when I worked. Surely I can still grab a ticket.
  13. Aware. It sounds different too. I was at The Seventh Tour of a Seventh tour in August 1988 at age of 15 in front row.
  14. Iron Maiden Live After Death Long Beach Arena October 1984
  15. It's hard to choose top three but the way I feel. No jazz though. 1. Piece of Mind 2. Master of Puppets 3.so many to include
  16. To my ears. This is the best sounding Maiden album. It sounds raw and pure. The drums are amazing. I remember listening to vinyl version. Mindblowing!
  17. Main word is 9 letters is the main word like Fender ir Squier. They said two words is fine.
  18. Sounds good but Rothko decals only allow 9 letters and if I leave a gap that would be 10 characters?
