  1. wow ! that's a great build ! nice details !
  2. always wanted to build this one . after reading tim's fine article on how to rework the hood, I think i'll take a crack at this . will be stretched and slammed with a few other custom touches using the California hauler kit with a set of moebius wheels and tires. can't post a pic of the kit yet as photobucket is down for maintenance right now. will do so asap .

  10. that 58 Chevy is sweet ! will be a great project ! I just purchased the Peterbilt California hauler. I may build a hot rod like the pissed off Pete , or a needle nose not sure yet.
  11. I purchased those grilles from DTR, all three styles, they are awesome !

  13. wow ! that's a beauty, sonny and will would be proud ! nice work !
  14. a solid top will give a better sound. lighter strings would be easier to play and have less tension on the neck. it depends on your playing style.
  15. whatever guitar you decide to buy, be sure to check the height of the strings off the fretboard. this is called the action. take a US quarter and put it under the twelfth fret , it should fit in between the fret and the string. if it is a little higher it's okay but the higher the string , the harder to press the strings down resulting in difficult playability . acoustics have a tendency to pull the wood on the body up where the bridge is mounted because of the string tension. stay away from these. i'm a long time player and I repair guitars and wanted to offer you some tips to make your purchase more enjoyable.
