... yeah ur right. A Tanglewood Tomkat II J. I got it about 3 years ago and was my first guitar purchased by myself. Its got an Invader in the bridge and a BC Rich in the neck and it has a suprisingly great tone with light years of sustain. Only 200.Bruce Millers. Looked on the net once i got it and found no obvious record of it.

Yeah pretty original guitar, does it not have some acoustic simulation circuit built in?

Ok so it's a tanglewood right? But what model? TomKat?

What do you think?

Is it recommendable to friend?

If so tell 'em all.

Remember they r availible @ 1-UP and whenever HMG play.

Thanks to all of u who made the greastest local gig i've ever seen. Maybe our next recording could be called " HMG live tonight-SOLD OUT" HA HA HA.

Yeah it's a fucking groovy CD, third listen now.

I knew it! As soon as I saw the news I thought it must be a third axe weilder...and Dan Atom...woop!...think of the 3 part harmonies they can have.

Excited!

Did you paint it yourself?

that ain't bad tav. i remember looking at them at one point.

warmoth stuff is excellent. i got the neck for the guitar i'm building just now from them. quick excellent service

That's where I am getting the neck for my telecaster...hand made body ala Tav from.

Black body. Mirrored steel steel scratch plate. Chrome 'bucker at bridge...prob. one of my own and a typical tele single at neck. Hard rock <white> maple neck with black machine heads. Chrome hard-ware on body. Standard tele wiring with a push/push pot on the humbucker to split it and a push/push mute switch for live gigs...or so the plan goes.

I also have plans for a V and a SG to be made up soon. I love building guitars.

so are these 70 bodies good, and just cheap cos theyr left overs? or cheap cos theyr left overs and shit?

sounds promising...

They are made of ash or alder which is your standard wood for a Fender body. They have been fully routed in the standard tele way. This means you could rout out the pick up holes to fit humbuckers or what not.

Unless your going for tonal snobbery I think a 70 body is a good deal...considering most replacement bodies cost around the same amount? And a guitar size slab of good alder is 70 anyhoo...your getting value and a solid piece of wood...what more could you want?

I'll second you going as the devil, get some pointy made up eye brows...gel on the ol' beard to mkae that pointy...scary!

Got the DVD REgion X disk today and tried it out on my PS2, it's not suppose to work on early models and mines is a first of 250 but it seemed to work great...WOO!

Tav.... bodies are 70 for a reason. Cheap price = cheap tone

You don't have to tell me that, I know. The only reason these are 70 is that they are some left over stock from a factory somewhere so they are just selling them off.

As for routing cavities the best thing to use is...a router...sure chisels can be used but it's far easier to use a router. Infact anyone thinking of making guitars should invest in one as it saves alot of time and gives great results...or you could borrow/rent one if the price is too steep.

There is a company in the UK that have tele/strat/p and j bass bodies for about 70, I'll post link up soon.

Woo Craig got the PS2 multi-region CD and ASH is going to take his PS2 and if he can't Craig said he would try and take his...rukkus...

unfortunately the dvd player we'll be supplying wont be able to play US dvd's - sorry!

not unless someone wants to take one that does?!

I'll try and get hold of one if not I have Metallica DVDs that are UK we could use too...

Or if we can get a PS2 I am sure we can get the multi-region disk but it has to be a newer PS2 cause it doesn't work on the first ones, otherwise I would have take my one.

I've never seen live shit... would love to though! Especially on a big screen

Yeah live shit!

Is the DVD multi-region because Metallica Live Shit is US region.

Noooo Metallica Live and Loud...spoken to heaps of ppl up for it...LOUD METALLICA...think about it!

Originally posted by Mouse

Also Iron's Maidens RIR, you wouldn't be complete without it. The new Slayer DVD would also be great but Live Shit definately!

Im up for it!

I was thinking...

Metallica LIVE IN ABERDEEN!!!

That's right Metallica playing live material from their "Nowhere left to roam" tour. That's not metallic-all...

Support for one night only from ALICE IN CHAINS. Yes the grunge/metal super band are coming back for one last gig. Material from their very first album, Facelift!

You know you want this, I have the following....

Pick from -

Alice In Chains - Facelift...like 30mins of great rocking live music. Filmed in Seattle at a charity event it cost 6000 to film but looks and sounds great.

Alice In Chains - Unplugged...perhaps the greatest Unplugged gig ever.

Metallica - Live Shit Bing And Purge...pick between 1989 ...And Justic Tour or 1991 Black Album tour...you'll never see better Metallica...

Metallica - Cunning Stunt...between Load and Re-Load great concert...Metallica at their biggest and most flashy...fantastic too.

How about big screen showing live metallica videos from the live shit box and some other live concerts like AIC facelift for example or unplugged?
