New build started

Alder body from renegade guitar works painted duplicolor artic white. It has a bareknuckle piledriver in the bridge and a cheap hot output neck pickup. I rarely use the neck pup so I wasn't too picky on what went in there. I'm gonna shield the cavities and run a oak grigsby switch, 300k volume and a 250k tone with a switchcraft Jack. I'm debating on which cap to use. I have a .33, .22 and a .047. May try all three and see what works. I'm planning on buying a maple neck with a rosewood board. Maybe a fender mex neck or a warmoth. Pretty excited about my little hot rod. Now she just needs a name. Yes I'm open to suggestions.

Hi L.M.

Just curious as to why most of your builds are completed, and shortly thereafter disassembled and parted out?

Well considering you're a women your guitar needs a mans name.

Most of them I build for fun and sale them off as completed bodies. It's very much a hobby. The last body I sold I just didn't feel the sugar pine was for me. I loved the walnut top but time wise it really wasn't up my alley. This one I'm
Building for myself. I prefer alder or mahongany bodies and this one is a two piece alder body. And I'm not sure I dig Barry white. Maybe jack white

Will be a nice axe when he or she is finished. Keith would be a good name for a Tele.

Oddly I'm not a big stones fan. I thought about keifer. Aka tom keifer because I was always a big Cinderella fan.
