Hello everyone,
I'm new here but have been lurking for about 2 years now. I absolutely love this site. Anyways, on to the guitars.
The strat features:
Basswood body
Maple neck
Rosewood fretboard
vintage Fender pickups and guard
Ping tuners
Handpainted by me with acrylic paint and Nitro lacquer clear.
The lap steel is painted to match and was built as a joke really. It was inspired by the 2x4 mini build contest. It is built from a pine 2x6 salvaged from a pallet at work. The fretboard is Home Depot Poplar with metallic red epoxy fret markers and red LED position markers. The bridge is mighty might string thru and the pickup is a vintage Gibson humbucker with a new chrome cover. The legs are from one of those round tables that are made to put a table cloth over that you buy at Walmart for like $5. The only part I actually bought on this thing is the Ping tuners.
These are the first real instruments I have ever built from scratch and am totally hooked now. Let me know whatcha' think.
Later.
