Re: I'm an idiot, how do I fix this?

Yeah, just a green pad. Can I also use that stuff to polish the frets? If so I guess I sort out the finger board, then cover out in masking tape and then do the frets.

I've got a few other questions about cleaning this guitar up, I'll post pics this evening and see if yous fellas can help me out.

Re: I'm an idiot, how do I fix this?

And go with the grain? I went across the way with the green pad which i think was silly.

I'm an idiot, how do I fix this? *All fixed now!*

Ok, I don't think I've messed up too bad but what the best way to polish an ebony fret board? My new ESP came pretty dirty and I thought I'd give it a good clean, I used a green scouring pad with a tiny bit of soap on the fret board and the frets. They look much better cleaned, the frets had some ox...

Re: Show us your shredders!

If you insist, I put photos of this up just a few days ago, but here is one of them again. I'll get some new pics this afternoon too. I think I'm falling in love.....

Re: NGD: Gibson SG Standard

Interesting, glad you like it, everyone seems to rave about massive necks on their guitars, maybe it's because I'm not much more than a beginner but I prefer something a bit slimmer.

Re: NGD: Gibson SG Standard

Mine now go through the tele body. Somehow still managed to drill the ferrules on the piss, even though the pilot holes were perfect. Oh well, its all character building. A drill press would sort that out. Still haven't plugged this thing in! Loving the slim taper neck though, struggled a bit on my...

Re: NGD

I'm not sold on the EMG's by any means, but this seems like the guitar to try them out in since it was supposed to come with them. I can always go back to these pickups if I like them better, and I do like them. The Phat Cat is lovely and I like that the JB is so different, it give two very differen...

Minihumbuckers and p90's fit the same routing I believe.

Re: NGD

Yeah, I can't believe they don't make esp standard series anymore! Got to spend a lot of money to get a new guitar with esp on the headstock now!

NGD

A new ESP eclipse was waiting for me when I got home from work yesterday, and now I have sore fingers :thumbup: . I've wanted one of these since long before I started playing and one came up at a really nice price. It's been played a lot but not abused and feels lovely. Pickups would have been EMG 8...

Re: NGD: Gibson SG Standard

Thanks chaps, very pleased with it. From what I've read, the 2012 models have the 490/498 pickups from stock. 2013 and onwards got the 57 Classics which I dig. Will see how they sound at practise on Sunday; haven't had a chance to plug her in yet. '13 was really close to a 61ri, small guard, 57 cla...

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

Fail! The blue one was much nicer. I do agree with this, though possibly in a less rude way haha. Blue would be number one choice for me though so nothing beats it. They are really nice looking guitars. LOL, I think I know Tim well enough to know that he'll read that in the light hearted manner it ...
