Thank you Chris it looks like you are going to do carbon fiber reinforcements and a truss rod this time so maybe that's an idea I can try at some point for me I am all over the place as I ordered a Ford pacific green color paint can of duplicolor acrylic lacquer and it was mislabeled with the Ford jade green color with the wrong label and I am still trying to figure out for a cnc machine to start with even if it is cheap I know I can modify them but it is annoying that they are all Chinese and while I am finding 4040 ones I really need 4080 to do guitar necks. I am seeing 3020 ones and extension kits to bring them up to 4080. So looking at your machine gives me hope that even if I buy a vevor s 4040 machine I can probably build it up even with a chain design since yours has that. And probably figure out how to get the rails I need to make sure I stiffen up the machine maybe you could do a video on your cnc machine and help us with the size of your machine and the rail types you use and stepper motors and how many axis it is and type of rails. And finally I made some progress on figuring out how to make a decal of my yamaha rgx sticker headstock decal from taking a picture of my headstock. And the yamaha rgx is very special to me and while I destroyed the neck of the original one I had from 1988 trying to remove a fretboard 15 years ago I was lucky that a few months ago I was able to find one just like my taiwan made one from 1987 or 1988. But this one is white and not red and what was so neat about that neck was and the neck pockets was the 24and 3 quarter inch fretboard had 24 frets with no overlaping fretboard on the neck pocket shape. Which means how the neck pocket on the body was also unique and on the neck itself it's not at all a scarf joint as I checked the type of joint against my Jackson neck and it looks different like the wood was jointed either by the nut or 2 pieces of wood was joined together from the side to create and shape the headstock angle anyway thanks again for giving me ideas. Even if I am a new subscriber. It comes down to quality and while I am not a very technical player at all I have an ear like a Eddie van Halen ynvwie malmsteen level. And just want what I want and that's why I am getting into building my own and experimenting because I am sick and tired of hearing just buy one you will never get exactly what you want. While the late Eddie van Halen would disagree and so would yngwie and even Steve Vai we all know even with solid bodies each guitar will sound different and to me you need good acoustics before you do the electronics and such I have proven I am right and so has Eddie van Halen and yngwie even with modeling amps. And I think it is about time the younger generation learns this instead of bieng stuck in relying on you tube and trickery and sampled sounds or stupid sound graph tests and goes there is no difference between this wood and that wood. . While if my ears can tell the difference and ynvwie can tell the difference and Eddie could that means there is a difference so one guy trying to Move a maple wood cut out with the electronics wired up between different bodies down middle and saying it's just mahogany and then a Popler body and then birch is going to affect the tone to because you are using a maple. Middle for the blank and african mahogany sounds very different from hondoran or American mahogany and the mahogany he used was african. To test not gibson style American mahogany. And ohh exotic wood zone sells 3 packs of gabbon ebony on ebay for 30 dollars but not sure of the quality but I found a good quality one on Amazon made by A company called Golden Gate that's 50 dollars a blank and yes it may require work and be Chinese but at least the blank was really good quality and that's what counts.
