  1. The kill switch will be for tom morello style stuff and because i just like the ability to turn my guitar off. Also the floyd has now officially changed to strat style hardtail due to lack of thickness and deep pickup routes. If anyone is interested in buying a cheap lisc. floyd in black,pm me,if anyone has a fair priced black hardtail they would like to sell me,pm me. Thats all folks.
  2. Ive come up with a couple other things I want to do to this guitar, I'm going to scallop from frets 15-22 and Install a kill switch. Oh gee whiz I can't wait.
  3. I like the colour on that,it really looks good in my opinion.
  4. I didnt get the wonderbar when I purchased the guitar,it was a body,neck tuners, and pickguard with 2 single coil pickups. Trust me If I had the wonderbar It would be on that guitar right now . In other news I,with some help from my father sanded the guitar down today. I masked off the neck(its a set neck remember) and cavities and am preparing to start painting it on sunday. Tomorrow I am planning to fll in holes etc and prime it. Pictures come sunday night or monday,whenever I get around to it.
  5. Ya,I know I'll take a picture of the template i made up too,so you can see what the stripes will actually look like...as soon as I find a camera.
  6. Heres the computered picture,it doesnt have green knobs or switch and its not perfect but it gives you an idea. Custom strat plan
  7. Hello fellow project guitar forum members,this is my first post here but I,unlike soem newbies have spent a fair amount of time reading other tutorials,articles and questions to avoid me asking some obvious ones. Anyways my plan is to convert an old beatdown 1980's washburn superstrat(s/s/h with no routes from a previously installed washburn wonderbar unit,set neck,22 fret rosewood fretboard,grover tuners,pics to come when i have a couple minutes). I plan to strip the current black finish and paint it green with black tiger stripes. Hardware -black pickguard -green pickup covers -green knobs and switch tip -dimarzio evolution/paf/fred in the bridge (im still undecided) -hopefully a recessed floyd rose(if there is enough wood to route everything out)if not I will use a strat style hardtail bridge in black) -im also planning to shield the pickup cavities and control cavity and do the bridge/neck mod for using the bridge and neck pickup at the same time (btw the 2 single coils will be the 2 stock washburn pickups that are in it until I have more money,im only 15 and dont have a job...yet) Any feedback,ideas and comments are appreciated,this is my first project and the guitar was cheap so this is also kind of experimental. As soon as I get a photobucket account or something I will post my computer generated plan and pictures of the guitar in its current state.
