nope, i've done nothing, still the old laser neck and headstock. i really have no needd for an auto tune thing, and they're not really sold as stock items now Gibson own them


not a bad idea Phill. i have leftover material...when i got 5mins

Wouldn't be too bad I reckon, if you can pop the old one off in one piece you could use it as a template for everything but the pickups!

well the holes are in the wood behind any way so i can drill a small hole through the back, and let the router do the hard work :-D

i can't see it coming off in one bit, might have to router it off

You'd be surprised. I got the tops off mine a couple of times. First one that was really shattered was an absolute nightmare, had to keep bashing a chisel between the wood and mirror and working each section off, but the other one from my XY mirror guitar came off pretty easy. It might have snapped into 2 or 3 pieces down one of the cracks all ready in it.

That guitar is amazing.
Don't know if anyone asked this before, which program do you use for the design?
Waiting to see the cover with your guitars.

well if i do pop the top off, i can sort the pickups, and a can chamber it, cus its so fucking heavy, its 11lbs!!

[Phill]

Haha yeah chambering is a good call.
If you're worried about contact for the mirror, route a loads of grid lines so there's still plenty to glue to.

Thanks, i was referring to the video you said you were going to do with all your guitars.
Don´t want you to waste your time, but what router bit did you use to make the sides of the mirror?

i want to do Hysteria with all 5 (Delorean, bomber, chrome bomber kaoss & 007 replicas) but as kaoss is in bits it won't be for a bit

i used one of these, i got it from my local hardware shop

Thanks.

The moist feeling in my pants is a good one.
