Check My Guitar Build

[The Hippie]

Hey guys. I was trippin' out looking at my digital camera so I decided to take some pictures of my guitar that I built a few months ago. Comments are welcome.
PS, anybody here play guitar? Or have any interest in playing?

[4gan2ja0]

pics?
i dont play, but my buddy builds guitars, theyre fucking sexy, hes building an accoustic now

[Bluntmasterbabe]

I got an acoustic Fender last year for christmas, so I've been trying to learn. No luck yet. I can play "Mary had a little lamb", but that's about it:D
I would love to be able to play it, but it really is difficult to pick up:jointsmile:

Sorry it's this crapy dial up that keeps timing out...

Nice. I don't play or build guitars, but I'm trained as a luthier (violins specifically) and appreciate a nice build! Nice inlay on the neck.

[Nightwolf1772]

nice what is it i play bass myself but i try for guitar now and then i have a Epiphone Les Paul

[The Hippie]

Based on a Fender Stratocaster, but with a few of my own touches...Neck radius, fret height, headstock shape, electronic setup.

[CRIME IN STEREO]

[horror business]

I have a 70's style Fender Stratocaster, and an Ibanez Iceman IC300 with EMGs, which has been my choice guitar lately.

[thecreator]

thats raw i play bass and know how to play guitar as well and that omg i want to play and if it comes up missing im the one who stole it

[dean0000]

Thats a great guitar you built there. I play guitar also. In my D+T class in school some guy made a guitar for his project, it was good but I think his dad did a lot of it.

Did you make that guitar exclusively by yourself?

[Creesab]

I have been building this one for a while. I did all the cutouts myself. I want to get it painted white with a heavy pearlescent treatment like you see on really hot motorcycles!! it will look so good with all the black hardware.

Oh man lots of good stuff on this thread. I myself own a Schecter C-1 EA Semi Hollow and it's far and away the best guitar I've ever played. I've always wanted to build my own guitar, I feel like it'd bring be closer to my playing and maybe even help my skills improve. The only problem I have with my guit is that it's semi hollow, when I really want a fully hollow guitar, much the same as the custom ones built by Paul Languadoc for Trey in Phish. I want that LIQUID sound dude, if you know what I mean. I want those notes to fuckin just flow like water over stone.

[cygnustaxt]

awesome stuff here, i've been playing guitar for about 12 years now. Been planning on building my own tele with a b-bender in it for the last month or so, Just gotta get my finances in order before i start making purchases. here's some pics of my current gear : Marshall JCM 2200, Fender 50th anniversary fat strat, Seagull Acoustic, Ibanez AG75 hollow body.

nice strat cygnus - is that a midi guitar?

[cygnustaxt]

use to be, i've since removed the pick up and sold it along with the pedal. I was having tracking problems, plus i was in need of some cash so i got rid of it a few years back. I like the way it looks without the pick up though. I've been thinking of building a guitar though and i want a tele with a b-bender system installed. I'm thinking maybe i could put a midi pickup inside the guitar. It'll be a beast, haha.

[Shovelhandle]

In my day (60s- 70s) I had many nice axes. Many teles and a few other Fenders, some Gibsons, a Vox, a Guild. Fender Princton Rev, Deluxe Rev and a Twin Rev with EV SROs.

I now have a Squire strat (I'm going to have to ditch it for a tele), which is fine for the money and a ss Fender amp Frontman Rev 25. I love seeing the stuff you all have posted! :rastasmoke:
