First Homegrown Guitar


Recommended Posts

howdy from texas. my name is barefoot ed and here for your consideration is my first guitar project. its a neckthru with mahogany-maple-mahogany laminate for the neck, mahogany "wings" and mahogany machine head ears. it will have a maple fretboard with mahogany fret markers in the form of roman numerals.the frets i have in mind are about the size of railroad rails. (planning ahead to minimize refrets) and made of stainless. ill be using a brass nut and a gold hipshot hard tail bridge. ( the washburn tremolo in the pics was a garbage can find, and will not be used. if anyone out there likes it, id be willing to trade for a hipshot hardtail.or something similar, but its gotta be a stringthru, because the body is so small.) the pickups will be paf copys, each with their own set of controls, consisting of dual concentric pots wired for tone/vol, and a 3 way toggle for each wired for singlecoil-off-bothcoil mode. a friend suggested dual output jacks for a stereo option.all criticism will be appreciated, thanx for your time. keep slidin'.......................
