Project: "Franken" Fender Stratocaster
Latest project of mine. I'm taking two Fender Stratocaster's, tearing them down and building a blues guitar for myself to wail on. Fender Custom Shop Texas Special pick-ups, are being taken out of the blue guitar, and put in the sunburst guitar. Should be pretty entertaining when it's all said and done.
damn not one comment... you guys got something against guitars or something?
I don't play, nor do I know anything about guitars. But it looks pretty, I bet it sounds nice
sounds like fun...i myself play bass... i have a warwick and an ibanez..and my dad has a custom american strat

nice dawg i ill post my pix too
how much was it?
Nice work. I just had to do a little bass surgery tonight. Like 2 years ago, I had dremeled out the nut on my backup bass so that I can use the lower 4 strings for a 5-string bass on it...apparently I dremeled too much, because it eventually buzzed so damn much it was unplayable.
So I got a few new nuts (they're cheap so I got some spares), and earlier tonight, I CAREFULLY trimmed the new nut to accept the 130ga "A" string. Here's the pics:
The old, mangled nut:
The monstrosity that is the 130ga A string:
The finished product (Ibanez EDC-710 tuned A F# B E):
Those are some crazy setups.
I would be playing a little more, but I just sold my Line6 Spyder 2x12.
I have an 1996 Epiphone Les Paul(no not those shitty $150 ones, it cost $600) it's black and beautiful. I don't play anymore I never really had time for it. I baught it at a crackhead price because it was completely covered in stickers that were weird and random as hell. I managed to take them all off and realized hey it's black and only has a few scratches.
I like your guitar though, not really sure what you are doing though.

Nice! I my self play acoustic, but I'll get an electric as soon as I'm not broke. Right now I have an Ibanez acoustic and a Peavey Acoustic/Electric. I'm glad to see other people like blues too. Tends to be a lost cause in today's society. +1 rep for you.
nice project, i just bought a new PRS to add to my collection, but im a huge ibanez fan. i do have a mex strat and a jaguar reissue also lol. ive also got an ibanez 4 string bass but id like to get a 5 string now.
nice man. should turn out really well. great pictures too.
ive got myself an ESP LTD:FB200 (its a barritone) unfortunatly they don tmake it anymore, but damn i love this guitar, i love that i can tune really low when i want to and not get any nasty fret buzz.
