24 frets... :D
24 frets? Yes please.
why not combine this thread with the baritone thread and do a Pitbull baritone special?
I think the best option is for somebody to go through all the posts in this thread, find the common denominator of wood type requested, narrow the style down to 3 body shape options, solid and hollow
Do 3 virtual CAD drawings of what might be, then put them to a vote.
That will narrow things down considerably and hopefully a great guitar could come out of it, or, as they say, a Camel is a Race horse designed by a committee.
Otherwise this thread could go on so long it loses impetus .
I think something simple is best.
Thinline strat with the F hole looking like a dingo head?
I dunno - I'm not really in the market for anything that isn't a PJ bass (I guess) right now so it doesn't affect me.
Off sick today with dreaded man flu... cough cough
So read through entire thread, seems to be that a strat or tele or at least a double cutaway is preferred also semi hollow with feature grain updated electronics or none at all with or without pickguard...
My suggestions for what its worth and I think Fender released it last year as a solid body. would be a double cut tele thinline bound with feature grain 24 frets no electronics
Fender korea (I think) released something similar ie tc90 in the 2000s
Suggestion #2 only cause I like old stuff, what about a 1943 style tele proto type with snakehead and single pickup?
I think if it were solid body (no f hole) double cut (option 1), snakehead (option 2) with no pickguard / frisbee with a rear cavity, personal preference would be for a Bigsby (haven't got a guitar with one), though stringthrough would be good as well.
double cut thinline looks good, contoured/shaped body maybe?
So ive just read through the thread and was wondering if i can put my 5 cents worth in.....
In my mind for it to be an exclusively Pitbull community guitar it would have to be unique in some ways.Firstly this wouldnt be an entry level guitar but for medium to advanced builders. Multiple options, this will help it sell to a wider audience and so you can make your guitar unique.
1) Pitbull logo inlay or fret markers, something to id it
2) Unique shape but not so out there that it wouldnt sell.
3) Quality hardware so it sounds great
4) Wiring setup option for splits, series, either push pulls or switches
5) Options of flame or spalted tops for stain and basswood for painting
6) Options for hardware colour and different neck timber finishes
7) Setup so you can add or leave off a pickguard
Heres some shapes i would love to see, they are cool looking and unusual.Attachment 13651Attachment 13652 Attachment 13653 Attachment 13654
