    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

          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.

              Seriously what are you on about? You didn't post a picture of any guitar top, bottom, left or flipping right.

              Did you buy an air guitar?

                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

                  I totally dig that there have been a lot of iceman builds coming up lately.

                      Believe me when I say that some of the most amazing music in history was made on equipment that's not as good as what you own right now.
