"Skull Destroyer" build


Recommended Posts

Hey folks,

So, I am doing a build this summer inspired by my 10 yr-old son, who is the real musician in the family (drums for 5+ yrs now).  I have done several mods on guitars, then a few builds from parts, but this will be my first attempt at building from a raw body and doing the finishing myself!

 

The body is a "Jem" spec raw body :

I am looking to create this kind of effect - based on my son's feedback -

welcome to the group. is that body made of poplar? also- are you building the neck- what kind of wood?

Yep = poplar body.

I have a finished neck on order from china - I have yet to use anything but complete necks on a build - not sure I will ever have the skills to build a neck!
