Bought a cheap guitar to mess with, arrived today, and just spent all night doing this...

I still need to wire it up again and put on some strings, but I thought it looked cool already... that other stuff just makes it functional.

That's lovely. Going with a mini humbucker at the bridge?

Thanks mate, full size humbucker, pic perspective makes it look smaller,

Hopefully my LAST Project. Stripped the body and may go with a 5150 theme (neck, control and trem cavities reveal it was previously a EVH Red/White/Black Stripe finish) since I've always wanted to try my hand at one...

Probably the shadow, now that I look again.

Hopefully my LAST Project. Have to strip the body and see how the grain looks and decide what to do finish wise.

God, the flame in that neck is GORGEOUS!

I find myself with a bunch of extra hardware and pickups; time to start another partscaster.

Picked up an unusual '88 Lasido Neck...not sure what I will do with it but it's definitely a Tele style. Very much like a Vintage Kramer Pointy construction on the back with the three piece full length core, non-scarf joint and a tilt back headstock.

Just waiting on the other neck to be completed and arrive then I'll figure out which one to use, finish, etc...though I kinda like the look and the J. Ra '88 is a really nice neck.

Don't know why I even bother considering; I know I'll go with the Maple as soon as it's done and received!

Nah. I bought that tape from the post office when I was shipping a guitar neck.
