May Guitar of the Month

[trv]

hmmm, I’ll have to crack the whip on the Silent Baritone and see how they go with 12-68’s or 13-72’s. Thanks for the feedback!

and your LP is still ridiculous btw. Does it need a home? 😀😉

Would the Silent Baritone you're referring to be found in the FrankenLab Experiment #2 thread? I just found it (as well as the entire Non Pit Bull Guitars side of the forum) and I am in awe! I'm sure whatever pickups you put in there, that guitar will sound amazing. Now I know where to direct questions when I start building scratchies.

Thanks again for the compliment and the very thoughtful offer... but I think it might keep it.

All done and adding to the list this month. ive never really liked single coil pickups but this might change me, sounds as good as it looks.
Finish back sides and neck ebony timbermate sanded back and liming white sanded back, true oil over top
Headstock some black stump
Electronics tonerider reble P90s, bournes minis for vol, kit pots on the tone orange drop on the neck kit cap on the bridge
Black roller bridge and knods and switch
Starndard kit tuners and nut which ill replace later when i change the strings
All up I'm really happy with how it's turned out and a nice change from all the humbuckers

Nice Adam, a very different finish you have achieved on the back and sides

[Adam Barnes]

Thanks wokka, just had it running through a Marshall and sounds as good as the others I've built so far. Its very crisp sounding

yeah that’s the one, it is a bit of a concept build. Thanks for the kind words, if I can clear out some of the lingering kit builds I can get some focus back on that one.
i can understand you wanting to hold on to that LP, I know I would!

You seem to have a thing for guitars with f-holes (or some variation thereof) Adam

I do like a good f-hole, i might be a bit mad but i just like the look and feel of them

[Wayne.Mumford]

There’s nothing wrong with a bit of f-hole action ;-D ,looks a stunner out in the sun.
