I have 2, but they are not exact replicas.
My Ace tribute from my anti-DiMarzio days. So it is loaded with a Custom/Jazz from back in the days one could pull the covers off.
The other is a Lead II like the other guitarist played in my first band. The Lead II neck twisted around the truss rod and could not be cost effectively saved. So it has a '72 Tele Deluxe replacement neck.
I miss the 80's (girls) !!!

Finished.
In the end I cheated and bought a pre-painted Chinese body off eBay. My lousy rattle can spray painting and a couple of other problems.
Anyway.
The spec is a pre-painted Chinese body and neck from eBay, solid mahogany with a rosewood fretboard, Dean "Lights Out" pickups, Grover locking tuners, Gotoh stoptail, Guyker roller saddle bridge, TusqXL nut. The electronics are DIY with three CTS 500K push-pulls giving individual coil splits and phase flipping the bridge pickup. The pickguard came from pickguards.com. the output jack was moved to the tip of the lower V by yours truly.

My last semi-custom was secretly inspired by Adam Jones. I changed the shapes & colors to avoid jumping on the silverburst bandwagon & to mostly disguise it. But it's a 2"-thick body mahogany w/ solid maple cap, maple neck w/ ebony fretboard, triple binding all the way around, low-output alnico 5 humbucker in the neck position (turned around), ceramic high-output humbucker in the bridge position. I stuck a fatfinger on the headstock. The neck tenon shape & depth is surprisinglyclose to an old LP Custom, also.
Turn me on, Dead Man.Comment

I helped a friend turn his Fender Strat into an Alex Lifeson signature. He's a huge Rush fan, so he's loving it. The routing for the wiring of the 3 way at the lower horn was not that fun though.Originally posted by crusty philtrumOriginally posted by SecurbComment
