Oh man this is gonna look sick! I love the look of different coloured washers on the machine heads. Two of my guitars are rocking that look

Ralph you are a talented fuck for a psychopath.
I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously.

Look at what i found. I need .5mm thick :pissed: maybe ui could grind them down. Green could be cool.

I cant find any in the right size. I found those shims but their 0.01mm thick.

Wonder if it would be hard to just grind one down? I bet its hard to hold haha. I guess i could always drill out enough for the nut to go .5mm recessed into the top. I overlooked this part......oooops

No gotoh, The problem is i forgot to take a few mm off the headstock thickness to allow for the extra material and finish. So now the problem is i cant screw the machine head bolts down with the thick washers provided. I have some stainless .5mm washers here which work but i dont want to paint them.

So i need a M8 washer/shim with a 8-10mm ID, 14-16mm OD, Thickness .5mm oi brass or black.

Can you still take some thickness off the back of the headstock or is that not an option?
