Re: ask Chank
Chank, come back - Brewerytown awaits

I will ask about what brought me here in the firstest place: the legend of United/Code. I love my Stewart Orphonic so much, but I'd love a longer scale even betterer. Do you know of a relatively comprehensive source of info re: the brand names United built for? How about thinline full hollow bodies? Any like that around?
Also, doesn't this look a lot like your Regal (inlays aside)?

Oh, and

Re: ask Chank
It do. It do.
Sadly, I know of no such comprehensive trove of United/Code info.
The info is scattered all across the internet.
I will keep lookin' for somethin' though.

Re: ask Chank
I've never tried an agate slide. Tried most other common slide materials: glass, ceramic, wood, metal…
I've tried stone picks though & haven't liked 'em.
Agate's probably too heavy for the guitar I've got here with me now.
It's probably worth a try though.
Isn't too expensive.

Re: ask Chank
mixing fuzz and chakra's might be interesting though... I guess you could try by getting a egg shaped crystal and using it like a slide for a vichitra veena

Well, I had been considering using a controlled blast of micro-fine shrapnel, but you've already saved me countless hours with your finishing advice, so I'll just go with what you saidBlackened Soul wrote:Nothing works. best just remove the whole finish and start again.Dandolin wrote:Chank, hwat's the best way to buff out fine scratches on a nitrocellulose finish? thx in advance
