Nice work, Ian, always loved the feel of a fretsless but definitely takes some "getting onto" for sure.

Tuners on the back?

What kind of pickups?

Ed, as far as players, that list would go on forever as I like many different types of music. To name a few, Joe Satriani, Al Dimeola, Stevie Ray, David Gilmour, EVH, Eric Johnson, etc.

Another couple of pics for you; This one was a good story, it's the cover model guitar for the Jackson Electronics campaign in 87-88. When I first saw that picture, I was buying a Jackson pickup to put into my guitar and that pic was on the cover. I fell in love with that guitar but there was no way I was affording one of those back then. About 5 years ago, this guitar came up for sale and the seller had no idea what he even had. Needless to say, when I saw the pics of it and then compared the crackle paint "footprint" (no 2 crackle paint jobs are alike as it's a chemical reaction) I had to grab it. Pretty reassuring feeling when I took the trem off for maintenence and saw the "photos rush" note under the clear coat.

It was my Holy Grail of guitars.  

Thanks,
Dave

Interesting idea, and how will you keep them from locking?

Nice work, Kahlid, I see you used 5 pieces of software to come up with this?

Thanks again, fellas 

Dave, really great job you did there, I'll bet the wife helped. 
Who handles that material.

Ed

Ed, no help from the wife on this one, it was all me. Perhaps she's rubbing off on me....   

The material is called Gravoply 1 and the company that makes Gravograph machines handles it.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi there,

Not sure I follow what you're asking.

VCarve can use most True type fonts in your windows fonts folder, do you not have that one installed?

Really nice material,

Thanks-;)
