1st Guitar Build


Recommended Posts

Hey, ive been building guitars now for roughly 4 years. This was my very first guitar that i made and it is still currently a work in progress since im constantly tweaking, altering it and using it to test new ideas on. Its main use is as a workhorse basicaly durring band rehearsals it gets a heavy use and lots of moving around or if ive been working and havent cleaned up and wanna quick play then i use this one.

In the begining

Body - Maple

Neck - birds eye Maple

Controls - 1 ol, 1 tone, 3 way switch. (N, b, n&:D

Custom scratchplate.

And the pick ups were just cheapos from ebay after id spent all my money on buying the woods for the body and neck.

2nd stage.

Changed the pickups, made a new scratchplate and added in a phase switch. As you can see from the close up shot making the scartchplate didnt go to well and left big gaps down the sides of the pickups.

Pick ups:

Neck - seymour duncan cool rails

Bridge - Seymour duncan hotrails

Currently

Redesigned the scratchplate and that brings us up to date with it B) well for now at least :D
