The "Total BS" guitar

Post by blazer »

A few years ago I stumbled across a piece of Pine which used to be the table of a bar and I made three bodies from it, Lately the first of those three had fallen into disrepair so I decided to fix it up a little.

The guitar as it was before I fixed it up, it had a 3/4 size strat neck and a sole Neck humbucker.

The guitar as it is now, I prepped it for a Tune-o-matic bridge, routed it out for three humbuckers and a full scale strat neck.

As for the "Statement" a friend of mine once told me that all those statements made by stickers on guitars are actually all "Total BS" and that inspired me to put that line on this guitar.

Ha-ha! Image The first "incarnation" looks way disproportional, imho. As for the second... well, it would look cool onstage, methinks. Image

The way as it is now, I put one the hardware and the humbuckers of an ESP LTD Viper which I never played anyway and a Duncan JB Humbucker. The resulting sound is anything BUT BS.

Just noticed the old HH VS Bass combo in the background of the first pic - I had one the same as that about a hundred years ago! Loved the way the panel lit up green when it was switched on!
