Currently include -
Ibanez RG, only fitting a floyd too it. Got bummed out with routing error.
Parker look a-likey from Korina - its carved but at the time I thought it needed a hex pickup. So I need to fill that bit in and finish sanding etc.
SX Tele body, sprayed with black nitro and currently hanging around with my big pile of tools. It won't look authentic, it'll just look like its been hanging around with spanners for a year.
Korina bodied Strat. Korina is quite soft, the posts for the two bridge trem broke through. This will end up being a hard tail. Probably.
Hohner steinberger look a like. another with a built in hex pickup. Too be fair, both of these hex pickup annoyances were before the tripleplay.
I think thats the lot at the moment....
And... coupla cool Lammys in the shed...
just want to point out they're still there. This is the year I get back to it though! I saw this one on facebook the other day and it made me moist! sale price $12k but it is a fully rebuilt 1969 iirc.

Cedarmaster is looking awesome too, and only 2 and a bit years to this stage! well done!

I'd ride that like a fat girl if it wasn't for the fact I'd look like a gorilla fucking a football. I'm definitely not cool enough to pull it off.

There's a big scooter event on the Isle of Man each year. Lots of 60s style machines. They ride the circuit anti-clockwise.

Scoot racing seems pretty big in Europe and tge States. You can get some very cool hotup bits for Lams and Vespas. Big horse powers.

Not anymore. Cedar eventually loses its smell. I was an absolute delight to rout though.

So i'm thinking about what colour to paint this. The crux of the project is for the guitar to be built as good materials come up cheaply.
I have two tins of nitro in storage with enough paint for this project.
1) Luar green

Or 2) Black

as seen on this Coronet.
Both will have matching headstocks, the black one will have a white guard.
Opinions please!
