Matia Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 See now here is what happens when the dull thud of boredom that is a sunday morning comes along and kicks you in the head... I woke up today... looked at the poor shapeless strat sitting in the corner of the room and thought.... hmmmm what devastation can I do to that in 12 hours??? So I promptly got out the sander and bandsaw.... and below is the result. All up it took exactly 12 hours... I think its actually kinda funky!! And although its only got a base coat on and still needs lots of work I thought I'd let you all know how its gone today... Boredom is a dangerous thing!!!!! Ignore the smug me! Sorry for the really bad pics but I'm reduced to using the webcam again... Digital camera got left in the UK... along with my complete respect for what was a fender strat... ahha! mwa mwa mwa mwa!!!!!! lee Quote
Guest AlexVDL Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 Wow matia you pervert, how could you do that to a fender Hahaha just kidding, it looks... uh... well... uhm flamey Quote
LGM Guitars Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 wow, that is without a doubt the best looking strat I've ever seen!!!! Seriously! (I hate strats LOL) but it really does look kewl! Quote
Guitarfrenzy Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 Looks great.. but It's not designed for playing.. that's for sure.. lol.. owww those flames are sharp.. lol Quote
Matia Posted July 13, 2003 Author Report Posted July 13, 2003 HEY ALEX WHATS WRONG WITH BEING A PERVERT?????

Power Violence Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 That reminds me less of flames and more of that crazy melting watch picture. Is the sustain effected at all? Quote

rokstr Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 You're crazy man! That's pretty cool looking.......how does it sound? Quote
LGM Guitars Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 ok, now for all the marbles, who can tell me where that flame design guitar originated from? (company and guitarist using it and video it appeared in) Brian you don't qualify! Hint: It wasn't fender, they aren't clever enough to come up with something that cool LOL!!!!!! (ok, I'm joking, I know if it wasn't for the original strat guitars prolly wouldn't look like they do today) Hint 2: It also wasn't Ibanez that came up with it Quote
Guest AlexVDL Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 - Original designed and built by Joe Despagni, later on by Performance Guitars; - Played by Steve Vai duh... - Seen in the Going Crazy Video Quote
