Which tool did you use to round the edges of the body?

Basically I want more Mustang guitars in more delicious colors! That was something I was wondering, it would be easier to just print the already made templates rather then tracing a guitar? Also, do I have to glue two wood planks together or would I be able to find a piece of wood thick enough?

I've been browsing these forums as well as OSG for a while now but I have been intensely wondering for a long time now.... With people capable of producing Mustang bodies with an hours time how hard would it really be getting the bulk of a guitar done?

My main goal is to find the easiest way to ...

Oh okay, I was always under the impression that they would have to be beside eachother when wired to create a humbucker for the proper sound. So it will basically be the same pickup selections but an additional option of turning them both on together?

Also Mages, is there a version of that diagram ...

Haha no, not the bridge itself, I'm not going to be using the Tele bridge. I was wondering if, like in the signature above me, the pickup all the way to the right by the neck has that metal enclosure on it. Will this be able to fit over the pickup closer to the neck?

This probably doesn't matter ...

Hi, this is technically my first real "project" (pictures soon) and it looks like it has a chance of actually being completed!
Not really a expert in anything and I kind of take or leave things as they are for example I don't know as much technical details of sound as I'm sure many of you have but I ...

another guy got a p-bass, and a jazzbass, and "fenderized" the headstocks(badass...)
another fellow has a mini jazz bass, im not sure of the scale, the quility is ...

Seeing stuff like this just makes me feel stupid owning a 65 RI new from Musicians Friend

How much do y'all expect this to go for? I actually really like it.

Oh yeah haha totally forgot about the builder, my pickguard is the same as yours but a little more swirly?
Probably going to go with the burgundy it seems to be the only fit with the pickguard and white.

Ah thanks, I'm going to order from the same guy as you, just wanted to know if it'd be just as easy as the one in that video.

Any suggestions for stripe color for my Olympic White 65 RI Mustang?

Fran, is the applying of the stripes from vintageautoliterature the same as shown in that video posted by another user?
