Classicaster


Recommended Posts

So, yeah. I haven't finished project one yet but I'm already thinking about number two.

I just wanted to ask some of the more experienced builders their opinion on an idea. I was thinking about building a telecaster-come-classical guitar. As in nylon strings and stuff. Would the standard pick-up positioning work and would I need diffrent hardware? (eg machine heads, nut etc.)

Dunno, maybe I shouldn't have posted this at 2 in the morning. I can't seem to keep my thoughts straight. Any comments are welcome.

Jan, Keep in mind that, If you want to use Nylon Strings such as Classical Guitars You won't need or use a pickup for that. The Nylon strings vibrate but

will not be picked up from a magnetic pickup since they lack mettalic structure needed to change the sound to amplify. If it were hollow and you use Piezo, that may work.
