TOPIC: I Finally did it!!!!!!!!!

I Finally did it!!!!!!!!! 5 years, 1 month ago #1

For all you Gilmourians like myself, Ive been building a guitar for the last 6 months (so if you're wondering im not making another 1 haha!) and ive based it on the aspect of the pulse tour red strat. I made this guitar from fender parts as well as i made and finished the neck myself ;D so ladies and gentlemen introducing the Daleyvid Gilmour Pulse Strat;

There is a nice pic of the body with USA strat single's in http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/4652/img0759hn2.jpg

A pic of the headstock I made and finished with a bone nut http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/4268/img0767lp1.jpg

Pic of the neck and the LOW action http://img131.imageshack.us/img131/1346/img0768zn0.jpg

And lastly next to my Fender custom Angel strat http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/7852/img0774xq2.jpg

I have a Fender Strat Plus from 1993 in red, funnily enough.  Nice colour.

Mind you, mine needs a new neck - the frets are all worn down and the top layer of varnish has long since come off around the 12th fret.

I like the action low too - I don't care if it buzzes

Niiiiiiice Strats!!! Can you build me a Takamine acoustic next? I'd like one but can't afford one. ;D

thanks andy, i built the red stra but the white one was a fender custom shop. A takamine acoustic would be a hard job as a glued in acousitc neck would be a problem.

I've got a red 40th anniversary strat with a Roland GK-2A pickup on it so you can use it as a midi trigger as well as a regular gee-tar.

Nahhh...just use some 6" nails and Evostick. I'm sure that would stick it! ;D[quote author=daleyvid gilmour link=topic=1100.msg40057#msg40057 date=1175206582]
