been dreaming about it, but after a time decided to implement their dreams into reality. Took his only guitar, and ...
How was it?
Sometime earlier I did not even know what it is and why it is necessary. So fond of his guitar and all ... It started when I started listening to a famous guitarist Sergei Mavrina. How then to one of the photos I saw him on the neck guitar cuts deep into between the frets, and began to wonder what it is and all for nothing. Read on the internet that it is called skalopirovaniem. When I began to get involved his technique of "touch-style" I became more and more interested in skalopirovanie neck. At first it was all a dream. I have a home studio, and nowhere there is not even, or especially details for this. Read about it on the internet, forums, and here I pereklinilo. Enough after reading pereklinilo me and I went to the market. This morning there were doubts do or not do this step, because it was the only guitar. In the market I bought a lot of nazhdachek different from the largest to the smallest. I came home and started See what is near at hand is suitable. I must say that this method is not correct, and professional workshops are doing it differently. So let's start!
at hand at home I found a piece of wood long cylindrical shape with different diameters, which are both just remembered I had ordered from someone that I did who worked at the carpenter's shop. tape, scotch and file. That was all. Dereyannye bars cylindrical shape I needed for cuts between frets on them I pulled nazhdachku and began to "scratch". Rasteliv newspaper on the floor and putting the guitar, I have transgressed the last 24 frets, it seemed easier for me, a small distance in width, and if you do not like it then you will not see.
turned out pretty badly not only took on one fret about 20 minutes.
error that I made at first it unprotected frets. On file and nazhdachki they were rough tracks. To do this, I took a narrow tape, and for every mood pasting of 5-8 layers and top layer of electrical tape.
When two frets were protected, I was about to prorilu between them. First, most rough, then softer nazhdachkoy. Edge on the sides of frets I dopilival neatly file.
whole process work took me from dusk till the next evening, about night, with a sleepless night away from one another. Turning to the big frets became heavier, because a large space more complicated make smooth rounded pits.
most difficult were the last frets are large, the picture above. Even top lok prevented, which I feared scratch. There I have my wise. Around him wore a tin box.
After all, I still long to trim your semicircular notches. And then polished to smoothness. Scalp turned out I had a deep, even taking into account the height of 2.8mm frets that was open to anything. Now I would not do deep cuts that's for sure. After all the agony of grinding, frets very well wiped with a dry cloth, but still had to be lubricated. I've used lemon oil, it is sold at any pharmacy. Rosewood began to shine like new.
Here's what happened.
course of perfect flatness can be said. But the first experience in the home turned out. Implications Of course then there were not very good, sick all the arms, legs, neck, even a couple of days)).
Scalp What gives?
After a hard work done the first sensation It was very unusual. Because the "bottom" under the fingers did not feel alone and presses the strings. Skalopirovanie gives you more to feel the guitar, good feeling, and to lift it becomes much easier to do. At first, the habit if the string is strongly pressed inside the guitar will seem upset but after an hour you get used to the game as his body parts). At the expense of sound before and after Scalpay can not say anything, 2 years ago I had not thought about it. But now I'm not a drop I do not regret that he had done Scalp in his guitar on a conventional guitar playing is not so interesting. It should also be noted that the brightest representatives skalopirovanogo neck were the guitarists like Malmsteen, Blackmore, etc.
