Anyone out there play guitar, have their own gear and like KoRn, Rammstein, KMFDM, Linkin Park, Darkane, Static-X, NIN, strapping young lad, etc, etc, etc... And want to be in a band?

Only catch is 3 writting/rehearsing sessions a week and you've got to be serious.:bounce

It's a long shot, I know, but thought I'd give it a go anyway :)

Nice! Well, if you start to get the need for strings again, just give me a yell :thumb

Thats crazy dude! So, you can make full on crazy guitar bodys, necks, heads, etc... Or are you just a tech wizard who just knows what works?

Cam, I get all the Fretwork done in a place in Sydney, but body shaping and designs I do, But I aint got time anymore to do them. Thay take a while, cause all my guitars are neck-through design, so you got to get it right. Bit tricky but well worth it!

N!


Cam - November 21st, 2003 at 10:46 AM

Nice! Wish I could do that sort of stuff. I would love a black fretless 7 string. All rounded, try and get a gothic classy shape to it. No sharp edges anywhere. Would look uber-glam/smooth.

BC Warlock was my first guitar I owned. I always used to borrow my cousins guits until he got pissed off with me! After owning that, I swore to myself, I would never buy another Peice of Shiat Guitar. Problem was I couldnt afford to buy anything desent, so I made them!

I've always been good with wood (dont think dirty thoughts ppl!) Im a qualified Cabinet maker, and have enjoyed working with wood as far back as i remember! ITs actually quite easy, you just have to take your time!
