our E Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Heres the final episode in my trilogy This ones called the Terminator and was built for my son who's a Muse fan. It has a through neck of mahogany and a frame 3/4" wide of ash to support the aluminium skin which is 0.05" thick I've used Sperzel non locking tuners and a Floyd Rose trem in satin chrome to go with the brushed finish on the body. Bridge pickup is from a PRS Santana and at the neck there is a Fernandez sustainer. It also has a built in overdrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demiurge Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Wow- how did you do the aluminum "skin?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwhiteandthemaple Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Wow you certainly didn't hold anything back, amazing features and and they compliment each other very well. I'm sure Matt Bellamy of Muse would even be a little jealous. One of a kind! Nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoughtless 7 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 That is absolutely awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our E Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) Here you go Demiurge,they say a picture's worth a thousand words so I've taken it apart just for you ( how good am I ) The strip round the side is glued on and the front and back panels are held on with 66 stainless button head screws drilled and tapped into the ash frame. Aluminium is a bitch to work on as its scratches so easily and you cant just sand it down like wood Edited February 12, 2007 by our E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim_ado Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 mad next u have to do one of those perspect guitars that Ampeg make there sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WezV Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Thats really cool!! Its hard for the Muse fans who want to emulate Matt Bellamy with the manson's being so pricey - your son is very lucky to have a dad who can make him one. I am really tempted to try a Muse style guitar with this pedal built in around the neck pickup: probe wah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our E Posted February 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm thinking of doing a flying v in aluminium next but have to find someone who can anodise it for me, this one is clear laquered but it scratches easily and is a pain to get looking smooth and without dust showing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
