So the reason I upgraded this guitar a lot is I bought it as a B-stock, so there were plenty of issues I was aware of first. I think I paid less than $300 for it? All completely fixable though! I can't say how the new ones from the factory are, so if you want to take a chance I'd go through Sweetwater or another big retailer that can help resolve any issues with ease. Overall, I would buy this guitar again as it is a pretty good value when it comes to extended scale 8 strings. You can find them used for good prices. The main drawback to this guitar is the stock pickups. They are pretty muddy and not the best lol....

Thank you! 😊 Before you stain the neck, wet the body and neck both down with Naphtha to see how they will look with oil on them (gets it pretty close). You may find that they both darken to a similar tone! When finishing the neck and fretboard, you'd do the same thing I did in the video except ALSO stain and finish the fretboard. Be sure to focus on sanding in between the frets as you don't want scratches showing after staining. It can be a pain to sand in between the frets lol.... Hope that helps! 😊

This helps a lot! Thanks again for your help and tips. Looking forward to learning more through your channel and projects! Have a great day!

@@brubecktime thanks for watching! Happy to help 😊

You can do it! If you keep the wiring simple, it’s not too bad. 🤘🏻

Thank you! It can be personal preference, but what I like to do is start about 1/4” away from the strings on both sides. I then raise them up and play to get the desired volume I like. I repeat the same process for the neck pickup. Hope that helps!

@@AugmentGuitars I'll try that then! Thanks for the response! I was asking this because I feel like my neck pickup has more volume and sounds more like “in front” in comparison with the bridge pickup. I’m using fishmans moderns so maybe I have to re-check the height.

Yeah the neck pickup is usually a bit louder if both pickups are at the same height. I usually have my neck pickups lower and try to match the volume of the bridge. You’re on the right track!

If you need any help feel free to reach out! 🤘🏻

Drop D#! 🤘🏻

Thank you! I used StewMac tints, here is a video that shows the full breakdown of how I did the body and neck stain & finish! ua-cam.com/video/AE-lnbSmHLU/v-deo.html

@@AugmentGuitars great, thank you I will watch this video with great interest and attention...👍🎸

@@user-io5vo6mp2x If you need any more help or insight just reach out! Happy to help. 😊

Thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed it. 😊

Send me an email! I can send you some photos and give you some guidance if need be. 😊

Thank you! 😊

These are stainless steel frets so they don’t scratch as easy as nickel silver. I find that buffing them up that high, the sheen lasts for a long while. Thanks for watching! 😊

@@AugmentGuitars no matter how good a fret job i do there is always a "play in" period where the board meets the fret at an angle and a radius wich makes me scratch my head about stainless frets . to each their own tho . thanks for the video . i enjoyed it

Just checked that out, pretty similar! Glad this jig is a better cost alternative to that one. Thanks for watching. 🤘🏻

Glad to be back! It’s been a while. 😅

Time got away from me lol! I am actually editing the second part of the build now. It focuses around the guitar work piece holder I built. Sorry for the delay!

No worries. Glad you're still at it. Looking forward to more content

Thanks a bunch! I like them, but I think I like the classic set more than the modern set. The modern set is a bit too compressed and I don't think it shines in the clean department. If they made the classic set in the soap-bar style covers, I would have went with those. I feel like they are a bit more rounded. Hope that helps! :)

@@AugmentGuitars thanks, that’s definitely helpful!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you!!

I’d say upgrading from the stock plastic one is worth while! Even if it’s not brass, upgrading to a bone or TUSQ nut helps tuning stability. They are also more durable.

😂

This is the modern set! 🤘🏻

It is electrical shrink tubing. It shrinks when you apply heat to it. I like to do it on most connections for a nice clean look. 🤘🏻

@@AugmentGuitars But, You’re not in Pakistan, Afghanistan, or something…

Thank you! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Thank you! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

There’s only so much time in these Shorts videos! 🤣

Yep! Love those battery boxes.

Thanks a bunch! 😊🤘🏻

Thanks David!

The setup should work! It might be a bit stinky (if it’s in your basement) but you can close the doors for a bit so it dissipates. I’ve done it a few times for some high VOC poly finishes. I’ve sprayed around 5 projects so far and I need to change to paper lol… It’s pretty easy with the double stick tape. As far as the internal filter goes, I’m actually not too sure. I’ll check it periodically and if I notice that the fan is struggling/not exhausting as much, i will change it. Honestly the first filter collects most of the spray.

@@AugmentGuitars i did my paintingbooth but i made it with wood frame it was less expensive but works very good ...do you ahve an email so i can send you some pictures of my project

Awesome! Would love to see it. My email is augmentguitars@gmail.com

@@AugmentGuitars I just send you the video

Don’t be racist

Thank you!

The drill is just a cheap Ryobi drill from Home Depot! Works great for these small projects.

@@AugmentGuitars What size is the drill? 0.1 m or which one ? I mean

Thanks John! 😊

Good idea! If this barrel jack ever fails I’ll swap it out for one.

@@AugmentGuitars Yeah, but don’t forget toothed locking wash Okay?

I like Hipshot locking tuners though!

@@AugmentGuitars hipshot More like Hipshit. Gotoh > hipshot

obrigado, irmão! @@AugmentGuitars

Unfortunately, you'd have to make one specifically for a multi-scale. 😞

I don’t sell these, but there is a seller on eBay who makes them. Search for RG8 brass nut and it should come up!

Hey there! I used StewMac concentrated stains for the body and neck. ua-cam.com/video/AE-lnbSmHLU/v-deo.html

@@AugmentGuitars Awesome, and I assume the color is Dark Walnut? Trying to make something similar.

@@Alice_Unchained22 I used the SM medium brown for the neck and the black for the body 🤘 www.stewmac.com/luthier-tools-and-supplies/supplies/finishing-supplies/colors-and-tints-and-stains/colortone-liquid-stains/

Thank you! I used a Silo humbucker from Bare Knuckle Pickups 🤘🏻

Oh Rabea's pickups. Nice choice!
