Re: Who's working on a build right now? Let's see your stuff!
Well the body made it in today. I cleaned it up a bit and fixed a small crack between the neck and neck pickup pocket. I am waiting on an original bridge and tuners and I need to get some bridge posts for it. It's a bit rough/heavy relic but it's solid. 3-piece body which appears to be ash or more likely sen, it doesn't appear to be mahogany. The body and neck are from June of '79.
I am going to throw it together and see how it plays and sounds with some 59's in it before I do any mods to it. While I have it apart I am hoping to get a good template for the body in case I want to make one in the future

Note: the TechWreck is not building this; her sweetie is, who is not feeling particularly social at this point. And no, he is not a figment of my imagination.
Well, that was really dumb. That's not the top, he's telling me NOW. Talk about a learning curve. Your welcome for the laugh, GUYS.Last edited by texred; 08-23-2018, 03:29 PM.

Cool stuff, lots of Iceman love I see
I have parts rolling in to restore/customize a '79 Iceman IC-50 that is in severe need of TLC. Got a great neck and most of the original parts less pickups which is fine because I want to do something different with it.
Think I am going to go Ayrton on it and make it a triplebucker ala the IC-210, filling in the rest of the holes before a refin. Only indecision is a buddy of mine that wants me to just restore it to stock for him. Fun either way. Pics shortly

Thanks, it's Gun Metal Grey. This is before they switched the colours up in the model lineup.
