Hi
I am new here, my names matt if no one guessed!
I have a major guitar making passion!
I made my first guitar between the age of 16 and 17, i finished it in september 2004. Its based around Brian mays Red special which he made over 40 years ago!
The body is made of walnut, with a mahogany neck and rosewood finger board!
The tremolo is a knife edge tremolo with a schaller roller bridge, has stayed in tube ever since it was finished!
Former site:- Red special making
This year 2005 i started my second which is going to be (i hope) 100% accurate to the original! so far the neck is complete and i wait the arrival of the custom made tremolo and bridge!
I decided to make another because it was my first go and a few things were wrong like buzzing strings! another reason is that its heavy !
This one is alot lighter and has the original sized neck!
4 red special making
let me know what you think and critisisum welcome!
cheers matt
