kingston project "SUPER CHUNK"

[VintAxe]

Hey johnnyb,

Scott has summed up my feelings concerning your project nicely.

I want to add that I appreciate you sharing your work with us, it is an inspiration to us turd polishers everywhere.

I should note that you are the most skilled turd polisher I know and I mean that sincerely and with much respect. I think the results you get with the castoff guitars you take on as projects are remarkable.

I know what you mean about the short scale, but once you adjust, they are a load of fun. It's like you have monster hands and can get all over the neck. Kinda like taking a spin on a go-kart after years of driving a car.

enjoy, looks like you have created an excellent player.

What a fantastic job!

I'd love to see a little more of how you replaced the frets with the bound neck.

As to the flu shot, you should still get it. The shot includes the H1N1 vaccine, as well as several other strains that may be circulating.

Glorious!

That's great!

Do you think the filling of the swimming pool had any kind of impact on the tone?

I've been turning it over in my head, and I can't imagine how it could make any difference, apart from weight- wise

here is a shot of the guitars i regularly play. they all are a blast and have their own unique sounds. the maxitone on the right still needs a bit of work. it still has the swimming pool rout. ill probably keep it like that though. the bridge needs help, it buzzes a lot. the teisco et-230 on the left is up for a re-fret and pup wax. but it still sounds killer as it is. the ibanez tele on the bottom may get a re finish and new pups. top dog is the blue tiesco et-440. the main problem is that im running out of space and a lack of cases and wall space.
