Hey all,

Not really a PB guitar but a project I could never have finished without the much appreciated help from Simon and Weirdy. It gave me enough confidence to build a PB guitar from scratch, next year I think.

I gave my 'old' LAG rockline body a total makeover:
- stripped all lacquer and paint
- turned HSS into HHH with rainmaker (N) - liquifire (M) - dreamcatcher (B)
- 3D printed PU guard
- 3D printed electronics guard
- Refinished
- Rewired with series/split/parallel on all PU's and individual tone/vol concentric pots
- Applied some personal touches:

SIBL Decal: the first letter of my 4 kids names
Petrucci signature: even an old man can have his heroes
Hummingbird decal: a little bird that symbolises that anything can be done, even fly backwards + symbol of love in some cultures
Phoenix decal on the back: the guitar rose from it's ashes, as I did once but that a different story :-)


Here some pictures and some sound samples (some own songs, some not)
Sounds were recorded with line 6 usb interface (before it broke down - see other post) --> cubase EL --> some plugins -->mp3
Drums: toontracks superior drummer

Sounds great! You've got to be pretty happy with that.

Listening to the demo tracks now, this just reminded me that I need to do some work on my Jackson guitar to get it back in a playable state, I'll need to do the same with my BC Rich Joey Jordison Warlock II guitar.

Nice demos by the way.
