whoofnagle Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Well attached is a picture of an old project that I recently started to work on again. Actually, the body had been sitting in the house for about 1 1/2 years after I lost the battle with the router (see shape of the lower horn). However, the other day I decided to see what I could do. I reshaped the horn (it turned out okay). I also changed from a traditional tele plate to a hipshot ( lots of new and old holes). The hipshot covers all holes except a portion of one. I will fill that in later this week. I decided to make the change because I wanted to add 2 x P90s. I am on a huge P90 kick right now. In fact, I do not own a guitar with Humbuckers anymore, but the P90s can cover a ton of ground.

whoofnagle Posted November 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Well, I have finally started to apply oil to the body. Here is a shot after about 5 coats of tru-oil. Back View Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoofnagle Posted November 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Here is a pic after wiring and stringing it today. Sounds great. I stripped a screw for the neck pup - so I will have to do a slight adjustment (lower it and shift it to the left just a hair), but for now I am happy.

skibum5545 Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Yummy!! The look of P-90's has really been growing on me lately, and this guitar really works well with the cream covers. I'm helping a friend of mine build a custom Strat (it's still in the planning phases) and I'm trying to convince him to use P-90's in it. Actually, I don't even play guitar (only bass), but I like the sound of the P-90's I've heard that I guess I'm just trying to live vicariously through him.
