Put together some "practice" builds with parts I had accumulated - had a Hohner ST Scorpion with a broken potmetal trem- originally bought a Kahler for it but didn't like how the body turned out after filling the original route
Got a GFS "factory buyout" body for 20 bucks, a GFS Floyd I had picked up on sale and put in some DiMarzios I had laying around, Chopper neck and D Activator X bridge (and some generic ceramic single coil to fill the middle). Import electronics, simple with auto splits for the neck in bridge in 2 & 4
Another Cheap GFS body with the Kahler, a neck from China, Chopper neck, generic single coil, and Super 3
Cheap GFS body, San Dimas style neck from ebay, and GFS Crunchy Pats- bought a couple of the gold GFS Floyd Roses when they were on sale for 39 bucks apiece- not sure if I'd pay full price but they seem to work OK
May have already posted this one- GFS neck and body for 16.95 a piece, a used JB and some alnico single coils with Wilkinson Trem
All seem to play and sound better than I would have expected (other than some sharp fret ends on the GFS neck)
Next one in the works:
