kozz -> Yet another hole (Aug. 10 2009 3:41:59)

Well I was very nervous starting to get ready to get a soundport in my guitar. At first I wanted it to try it on my old guitar, but I have put that one for sale, so it had to be perfect from the first time. I've experienced a little bit with drilling on some wood and a calabas to get a feeling of it and eventually prepared the guitar, took a deep breath and ..... IT WORKED..... I wanted to sand it with the Dremel but luckily I first tried it on the piece which was cut out and the Dremel sanded to quick to much, and therefore I used 600 sandpaper which worked just perfect. Afterwords I used some Turbo glue to finish the edges and it look allright. So now I'll be restringing the guitar again, which had to be done anyway because I had those Daddorio strings with black trebles, and I didn't like them. Last time I had tried Luthier strings, which I liked, and now I am gonna put Conde Harmanos 735 strings on it. I'll let you know if it worked out for me the same as for the other "hole-lovers"...[:D] The diameter is 35mm.
