Yeah it was there for broefest. What exactly did you do to the pickguard to make the hole vanish? Why don't these things come in pehlam bluuuuuuuueeeeeeeeee...

im downloading battery now.

i know the song but i have never attempted to play along before.


should be good for some lulz


see yall in the meorning

a tiny bit of the hole is still showing. its all in how i screwed the pickguard down to cover the dumb thing up.


all the pickguard screw holes are fresh in the gutiar, so i just went for it

i really want to get some 3x3 white plastic slot heads to finish this thing. gotta find something cheap in the mornign

rad thread

this is the worst demo i have ever done.

constant background noise
you cant see the guitar
i fuck up O' Canada
its too early to play battery correctly, or learn it for that matter.

Looks fucking cool, rob. Good call on the plastic tuner buttons, then the circle will be complete.

exactly. they're pricey. and I wonder how good they would stay fixed when you're not using them.

They're Bigsby-esque in nature and operation.
I've been looking into Stetsbars and Les Trems recently and one thing I've noticed about the Les Trem is that the end of the spring just sits pretty on your guitar's top, so permanent installation or no, it'll still likely leave some lovebite on the finish if you don't put something between it and the trem. Picture this on a Les Paul or SG, which have no pickguard there:




Given the price a Les Trem will cost you, I think that's pretty ghettofab.

And if ghettofab is what interests you, I'd recommend one of these instead for rob's project seeing as how it's already got superfluous holes and he don't give a fuck (granted, will require 5 more holes to be drilled in the guitar's top) as they're only 22 bucks from GFS, pretty much the same idea function-wise as a Les Trem and look awesome on an SG:

Very good work sir.
