After enjoying the fruits of your labors, we all need a place to chill. This is that place. Totally senseless irrelevant banter encouraged.

Now that was badass playing with 3 strings! Seen them made from cigar boxes but guess we should just get a bunch of shovels. :crazy:

theirs this gang of africans whore all afflicked with some disease where they can barely walk and need wheelchairs but they get by with these custom rigs made from bicycles and l metal

their a big band with the young kid singing and one of the predominate insterments is a single string held just off a tin can and the strings on a wammy bar of sorts and tremendous tension change is how they get all their notes

wish I knew the name of that insterment

looks fun to play as well

My friend has been playing for many years though and is the knowledge on how to set the guitars up. I just do the CNC programing when we use the cnc, the woodwork, soldering, staining, and polishing. So I pretty much build them and he sets the neck, bridge, strings, frets and rest of hardware.
Right on. I'm pretty much down to listening to friends play at parties and clubs. Luckily, I have some very talented friends to listen to.

damn I still cant find it!

whats odd was this band was on its first international tour
had hit it big

cant believe my search terms aren't find them
even if they were a flash in the pan

wammys are a pivot which tweeks one end of the strings,
this was simply the end the string runs out to being a bar that's arc'd there and then has a handle after

your yarding the shit out of that string and the action over the can is very high


say about that routing

is the process one in which a rough bit takes out most of the material and then you switch to a finer cutting one to make that last pass opening up to the finnish line you want?

That isn’t necessary, we use a template if routing using a hand router and with the CNC its all programmed in as far as depth and speed of the pass. Using the correct bit for the material you are cutting will leave a smooth edge.
