My next amp ...

 

[SpiderWars]

MJT just sent pics of the body I’ve been waiting on. This is their Closet Clean or whatever they call it. Not relic’d but not perfect either.

1 piece Mahogany Tele body from Musikraft. Got all the parts, but have been lazy to complete it. Need to get on it....

I hope that she's getting a clear or translucent finish to show off that burl swirl.

You didn't specify it had to be a guitar, so I'm building a vegetable garden. I mean, I guess I could put one of my pickups in it and throw a few strings on it if this is an exclusively guitar thread?

I’d trade some guitars time for some activity around waterfront property

Didn’t like the vintage spaces trem. The strings ride too close to the fret edges. I bought a nickel kluson vintage narrow to bring the string in some. Got it aged and installed. Also remembered o can’t stand the proximity of the volume pot, so got an undrilled pick guard and made some room. Lastly the pickup to bridge spacing is Fender spec 15mm vs non fender 10mm, so put it a JB to add more high mids

Here is my last personal amp build...........HG Jose. I am about to start populating the circuit board. Amp is a 1984 JCM800 2204 with original transformers, I got this off the original owner who I was in band with years ago. The turret boards were built by me. Amp will have depth mod, NFB control up to 150K, selectable clipping 20V-5V, elevated heaters, Metro Effects loop, solo control and two switchable gain levels LG to HG.

I'm working on a Les Paul tribute that is a killer player but had a pretty bland finish. Stripped it and going to be refinished in sparkle blue.

Here is an update.

Nice work. What color is that? Where did you get your paint? Shot with a gun or rattle can? Paint geeks want to know

Some gold on black goodness for the Abaddon prototype.

Thanks. It's Tropical Glitz south beach Blue. I sprayed the basecoat with their rattle can. Then shot blue metal flake over the base with my flake gun and then followed that with SPI urethane clear using my clear gun which is a Sata RP.

Decided to upgrade my elcheapo Tiger. LTD Boday, Butala Custom neck, Floyd Rose 1984, Godwood p/u. Really turned out well and plays great.

Nice, I just re-shot a Tele with their Cosmic Purple and got some of their Cosmic Blue for another project
