How To Build A Parts Guitar


One of our followers on Twitter recently asked for a beginner guide on how to build your own parts guitar. Building a parts guitar is a very cool experience! Being able to spec out your instrument with all the electronics and features you want is a cool way to learn what goes into making guitars. In this article, I will go over the basics of building your own guitar, mainly with some things to keep in mind before you embark on this journey. We will use the selection from All Parts to keep this easy and reference a hypothetical Telecaster-style guitar to give you an idea of some hurdles you might come across. Alright, let’s go!
#1 The Brainstorming Process
The best way to go about this is to pick a body that has already been routed. That way, you can avoid having to get the guitar routed or having to route it yourself. There are a few tools you will definitely need for the installation process. The biggest one I recommend is a Dewalt power drill – you will obviously need a variety of drill bits to mount various hardware parts. To also make your life easier, don’t forget a set of digital calipers! You will likely need a reamer for the tuning machine holes because they probably won’t be drilled wide enough. The best thing you can do for yourself is to get all the parts and tools you’ll need before you begin. And trust me, you might realize you missed a few things while you are in the middle of putting the guitar together. Read For More information - https://www.guitartricks.com/blog/how-to-build-a-parts-guitar#comment-4607519333

Skateboarding and Longboarding on and Around Campus

Even though alternative transportation is rampant on Whitman’s small campus, only a handful of Whitman students skateboard. Whether longboarding to class or skating for leisure, those who own boards on campus represent a small fraction of the student body. Whitman’s campus isn’t exactly ideal for the sport. For skateboarding you mainly just need an open, rarely frequented area with various obstacles and terrain. If there is a skatepark nearby, obviously that is a large draw, but for Whitman students, the nearest park is in College Place. On campus, skaters use the small area outside of Olin Hall or can be seen behind North Hall practicing tricks. As for longboarding, all one really needs is a hilly area that is hopefully nicely paved, ideally with not much traffic.  In Walla Walla, serious elevation change is something of a rarity, so most long boarders on campus mainly direct their hobby toward getting to class. However, there are students who do manage to find places off ca...

B12 Benefits While Pregnant

If you are pregnant, or trying to conceive, you know that taking folic acid is essential for the healthy development of your baby. But according to the World Health Organization, vitamin B12 is just as important in preventing neural tube and other neurological defects in infants and unfortunately as many as 1 in 20 adults is deficient in this essential vitamin. Vitamin B12 is important because "it helps keep the body's nerve and blood cells healthy and helps make DNA, the genetic material in all cells," explains Peter Shaw, M.D., chief medical officer of pharmaceutical company Emisphere, which manufactures B12 supplements. "A deficiency is associated with increased risk for several adverse pregnancy outcomes for both mother and fetus. These risks include neural tube defects, intrauterine growth retardation, preeclampsia and early miscarriage," he says. Even more frighteningly, the neurological and developmental delays in babies that can be caused by ...
