woot, new legra progress
« on: September 28, 2009, 06:08:54 PM »
I am having too much fun with this,

Bob thankfully has recovered and is back on full force, so we've hammered out my (2nd) Legra.
I went crazy with it, killswitch, fuzz factory, NB, MQ, FRpro, red glitter; it will be so much fun when its done :)
Its going into the paint shop thursday with some other projects of his......anyone else here have a custom guitar in the works? MDV how is yours coming along?

Thats a nice piece of SA. Shame youre going to get it covered in glittery paint :P

The aurora needs a new top. Previous one broke while planing (while the last 0.1mm was being taken off! Stupid stunning complex unique beautiful structural strengthless grain pattern)

I was going to go chrome, but sims charges like 400 pou...damn, I don't have a pound key, haha.

My plan is to eventually remove the Fuzz factory to install a sustainer and then change the bridge pickup to something else, then transfer the fuzz factory and the pickups to a new chrome guitar....oh the money...not including the other 3 guitars i want to eventually have made lol

Nope :) but its what I always wanted, I had no desire to play guitar or get into rock music until I came across Muse at Reading Festival, so they were the ones that opened the door basically, so his guitars mean alot to me, which is why I need 2!

My list of guitars to acquire goes like this-

Red Mattocaster
Chrome Mattocaster
Simple rosewood-bigsby Tele
Hendrix-esque Strat
SRV #1 Strat
JEM-superstrat of some sort

So i'm knocking them out one by one!

You're seriously not calling it a Mattocaster because of.. Oh Christ PDT_038

lol, yes Johnny, thats what they're called  PDT_013 :shock: they all have individual names; Silver Manson, Glitterati Manson, Seattle Manson, Laser Manson, Mirror Manson...ect...or..... the general term was Mattocaster, so thats what I used :)
