Seems pretty desperate. I would think a stick with a nail through it would do just as well.

I don't think they ever made guns. They made some really ugly cars, though, like this one , and this one.

Those were great cars! I like the first one and have seen many of the second. Definately get noticed when you arrive. Right up there with the BMW Icetta model with the one door in front.

Back to guitars, If it weren't going to be Q10 then it would be one of the early slotheads, one of the acoustic ones and you'd have to change the nut and saddle to bone from the original gold delrin which was very soft and soaked up some vibration.

There was an off-white one of the 2nd ones at that CarShow by your house . . . .
I thought it was pretty cool, but couldn't see what it was. There were quite a few cars there that were just "wrong". . .

Note to Self:
BoneSaddle.

Is it pretty much a standard width/thickness that I can order from StewMac??

Is that delrin?
I always seemed to remember delrin being that hard, brittle shit that shtank of formaldehyde when you broke/cut it . . . maybe I'm thinking of cycolac . . . of course the way the synapses in my brain have been working as of late, who knows?
Hence, "Messerschmidt".
I was probably thinking "Schmeisser". . .


". . .y'gotta take either more of it or less of it, . . . I can't figure out which one . . ."

Cliff,
Take more of it cause you forget to take it as often.

Isn't Derlin a fancy form of nylon?

Wouldn't cermic or porcelain make a good nut material?

Way too easy to snap/chip.

Or... it would chafe your thighs.

And after a brief sortie in luthier land, the OFC returns to its median level.

ChatMan,
Sorry, if I take us even further astray, but are you involved with the Language software?
