Mike what tunings do you guys normally use?

the diddler · March 12, 2012, 10:57:12 PM

mostly BADGBE, starting to fuxk some A-shitz

Damn nice! Whenever I hear about your V being built it makes me wonder where the hell mine is.

did you buy one or get one custom?

I feel you on the GAS 2, i got bored and designed a Jazzcaster while I waited 2

I've had an Electrical on order for 8 months but I'm told it should be sometime in March. It'll be my third V.

A# is generally my limit when drop tuning. I switched over to those dunlop heavy cores as they aren't such a heavy gauge and anything lower than C isn't working too well with that set.

Yeah, that should be close to getting done right?

nice, EGC right?

My guy is a local builder, 3 month build time about so far

clockwork green · March 12, 2012, 11:21:22 PM

Yeah EGC. I was told 6 though. I've also talked about a special double neck with him but I'm not going to put down a deposit till I see the V. I've had a bad run with gear on waiting lists. My two Toneczar pedals are way over due as well. I don't get why they can't round up a bit on the wait times, that way if it's done early it's a nice surprise rather than a constant unmet expectation.

yea wait times are rough my customers have patience but i guess i do 1 at a time so people really do know how long plus i post a gazillion build pics

bitter · March 12, 2012, 11:33:57 PM

Yeah that was a big deal for that fac off. I always knew they'd take a bit of a back burner to your amp builds, but having pic updates made the wait more bearable.

glad it survived a fall. Either way id have fixed it for ya.

bitter · March 12, 2012, 11:46:59 PM

I appreciate it man. I should throw some rubber feet on there as the powder-coated enclosure and stained Verellen headshell create a surface that's slicker than porn set.

yea

i went kinda hot, HB sized p90s in bridge and a Stockholm in the neck.

Chovie D · March 13, 2012, 11:39:04 AM

you should have your man leave that v all unrouted and clunky and square lookin like in that photo, like a flintstone vitamin verison of a flying V

I think I tune my baritone to "drop A" or B standard with the B string dropped to A.
Then I have another one tuned to a 5 string Keith richards with a low droning A string added.

man that looks nice. will it be a clear type finish to show off those different types of wood?
