I have been advised today that your PARTS HAVE ARRIVED.

Unfortunately, they are STUCK IN CUSTOMS and we have to pay $100 to get them out :sweat:

You made the tragic mistake of valueing the package at FOUR HUNDRED EUROS... so now we have to pay DUTY on it! (our customs exemption is only 10,000 rubles, or about US$300)

I thought I did a good job packaging the neck, but apperently I didn't, something somewhere went wrong during shipment.
Luckily it is fixable.

When will Sergei start?

Hmm... thats a little SETBACK... you never went ahead and sent me a "final" artwork for your guitar's body, so we had assumed you wanted a 'normal' IceMan shape.

So you really wanted a smoothed version of that rough sketch?? (double cutaway)?

Thats going to take me a couple of hours in the CAD program... If you have a better drawing, please send it along right away!

Ahhh. i just got off the phone with Shamray, and he tells me those were the wrong pics he posted (for a domestic 'Iceman' order!) . I can see now that is mahogany anyway... yours will be Korina. So (luckily, i suppose) your guitar's body hasnt been started yet... I will look into it this afternoon!

Walter already had the neck, which he bought for another project... this project was for us to take that neck, and "build a guitar around it..."

We normally don't do that kind of work, but i thought his body design was interesting enough to warrant an exception :)

this bodyshape is indeed very unique, it's the blend of an (IMO)
ugly parker and an (IMO) ugly ice-thingy ibanez. and the blend
of those 2 ended up as a rather nice and goodlooking guitar!

Ik zat te twijfelen om zoveel schakelaars in te laten bouwen, waarschijnlijk gebruik ik maar enkele standen, maarr... 'k heb zo wel de keuze.
Nog meer knoppies erbij lijkt me iets teveel v.h. goede, het voegt ook weinig toe denk ik.

nee. 3 knopjes extra. hij heeft PER HUM apart te schakelen: in/
uit fase hum/single en serie/parallel. 3 "schakelblokken" voor 2
hums, maar 6 knoppen. onder de tone+volumeknoppen had ie
pushpull pots. en onder de slagplaat 2 drukknopjes voor het in/
uit fase. op mijn LP die ik wil hebben moet dat dus ook komen.
met de compound radius toets die hij ook had

maar dit is niet de Number 1, maar de Number 2, die qua
uiterlijk gelijk was aan de Number 1. en idd, veel gebruiken zal
ik t niet doen, maar tis wel MEGAvet om te hebben :D

Patrick: you are not the only one! Apperently my drawing skills are not quite good :sweat:. The paintjob is different than we originally planned, we changed to a fireburst (black-red-yellow) bullseye paintjob.

!!!!!!!!!! (.)(.) !!!!!!!!!!

Michael is there a scheme of position of swithces and their settings?
This would make figuring out all the settings much easier.

the three mini-switches are simple - according to the schematic you gave me:

1) series/parallel/single for NECK PICKUP
2) both pickups in series/both pickups parallel (controls 'both pickups' toggle position only, no effect in the other positions )
3) series/parallel/single for BRIDGE PICKUP

thats the theory, anyway... They have to double-check the diagram you gave us on monday, and make sure its "for-real", because when i tested it today, that 'middle' mini-toggle wasnt working correctly. (despite the fact its apparently wired exactly according to your diagram...)

In any event - the guitar sounds REAL NICE - very clear and bright. Yer gonna ba a "HAPPY CAMPER", I am sure...:)

I dont know - they havent given it back to me for (re)inspection yet. I will look at it today :)

If that schematic really isnt viable, (not uncommon with schematics published on the web!) then we could wire that mini-toggle as a phase-switch instead...

STATUS UPDATE: I am told the switch problem was solved in my absence, so i will be giving the guitar its FINAL INSPECTION tommorrow.

No news on a shipping date - apparently we are still waiting for "the case guy" to bring us the (custom-made) case. Stepanov was hinting today that he thinks we could be waiting for the case another TWO WEEKS  - i hope to get more information on that tommorrow...

!!THE ICEFLY HAS ARRIVED!! (15.5 months after this thread started)

I tested it briefly last night, I like it!
The sound is quite clear, as expected with white Korina.
Of total of 21 switching possibilities, I found that there are 6 distinct different tones possible.
Talking about switches, Michael, how was the problem with the switch schematics solved? The problem was solved during your absence. I'm curious if the scheme was changed.

If I will find some time in the future I will do some sound recording and post the clips.

Keep up the good work!

the schematic you gave us was "bogus", in that when we wired it as shown, the center mini-toggle (series/parallel switch) didn't function properly. (it was acting as a MUTE SWITCH instead!)

So we changed the middle mini-toggle to a PHASE SWITCH, so that at least the middle switch could do something useful :-)

The middle switch is usefull indeed: http://www.freewebs.com/guitarbuilding/ICEFLY.mp3

The website has been updated. The Icefly is still my no1 guitar, but I am not fully comfortable with the TOM bridge, it takes a while to get used to it. Nonetheless a great guitar!
