I have noticed through watching your wonderful videos that you have a scalloped fretboard on your guitar. I know you play lots of neo classical stuff, and yngwie malmsteen has guitars just like yours. While I understand the concept of a scalloped fretboard, I haven't ever played on one, so I don't know the advantages (or disadvantages) scalloping a fretboard has. Also, do you know how easy of a process scalloping a fretboard is? I imagine it would be fairly tedious, but I just wanted to know. I am building a guitar as of now, and I don't have the budget to buy a scalloped neck (it's not the scalloping that's expensive, it's the brands that offer scalloping .)
Also- I was curious about this. why does your guitar have two black pickups and one white pickup? Thanks SidewaYs lightning -------------------- I spelled my username wrong...I didn't even think that was possible!
Look at the topic for my guitar... Finished Guitar Build Gear: Homemade strat (You still need to look at its topic!) Squier strat (probably going to get rid of it and get another guitar instead) :) Line 6 spider amp (not actually used for anything, just acts as a speaker) Digitech Gnx2 (kind of old, but cheap, and sounds amazing!) |

Thanks for the advice- that's a world of help for me. I might try to do it on my squier, but not until my other guitar is finished. I don't think I could handle not having a guitar for a few weeks.

I see. definitely have to adjust the trussrod though. Yes, that's a good idea! |
