Here are a few more pictures of the GK holes and the face.

Yes, that’s right, you heard right. Apparently, I have too many Flys. I don’t even know how this happened. If you know me and my posts, I really spend too much time & money modding them to see what sounds I can get out of them. I’m going to start with 3 of my favorites, all of which have graphte...

overpriced stealth in phoenix, for all your hartail needs.

I have also been told to use gun oil on my maple fretboard & neck. Now I have no idea what gun oil actually is, though

2nd!

I used to use linseed oil before I knew any better!

If I were in the market for a nitefly that one without the back plate would be it. The other one Is one of those weird non-piezo models and is pissing me off already.

Ha!
You are supposed to move from Ohio TO California, not the other way around!

More and more I find that I want to read about moving from city to city and economics an guitar playing. It makes me think of the old guitar players I knew in the 70s. A lifestyle that US economics has all but destroyed. My favorite line is: “the next time I had ten thousand dollars burning a hole i...

That is my kind of post. Lately I’ve felt that I’ve spent too much time tinkering and not enough playing.

This reminds me how much fun it is to test stuff out!

Ha!
That’s the reason I don’t use it enough. Most of what I do requires those 2 octaves.

Plus think you can see from the pictures that you want a fatter neck. Like a 24 fret nitefly neck.

Have you tried a carvin holdsworth neck yet??

I put some pics up in the MIDI fly mods post, but honestly I don't know why I call them that since I really don't MIDI that much.

By the way, yes, I love those Roland S1/S2 buttons. Much better than the switch. I understand how much real estate they take up, but I just like them. If any of you end up NOT using your Buttons in favor of a switch, let me know, I’d buy them from you! DF824_3515.jpg DF824_3524.jpg I still haven’t b...

controls: DF824 Controls copy.jpg The Piezo & Magnetic tone are both push-pull pots. Piezo has the mid/dark switch and I mostly play with it pulled out. The Mag Tone just makes the Humbucker a single coil and that is mostly how I keep it. The standard Parker Piezo-Both-Mags switch is now a small...

more frets & neck:
More for anyone who wonders about DF824 fret size. These are lower than they look in these pictures.
Anyone care to guess or inform on the size these are?
Graphtech saddles:

I tried to get enough good views so you can see what’s going on in here. Its pretty amazing that all this fit and it is packed pretty tight! Definitely don’t want to have to work on this on the road!

Ready for the next one? I know. I am absolutely crazy. This guitar is what I used to replace the Indonesian Floyd and basically why I never modded that. The stock Seymour Duncan Custom 5 (bridge) & 2 Custom Flat pickups are nice and rich-sounding, but for what I do I really like the passive dima...

I would reluctantly sell you my DF842. I haven't gotten as much use out of it as I wanted to. But, honestly, I am freaking broke these days. What kind of price in today's market is fair? You would be the specialist in this area. Mine is converted to 13-pin. Its all graph tech and thought out well. I...

More of this! This is what I like to see happening.
