Ladies and gents, I present to you.............. Fang,the $4.00 build (excluding the kit price)
Mod list is as follows.
Started life as a ST-1M kit and used the neck, control plate and single coils from the JM-1 kit.
body was re-shaped (mostly the horns) as well as a slight reshape of the arse end + various hole plugs and re-routs
pickguard is plywood painted with leftover paint
electrics were reconjiggered to be 2 volumes and a 3 way switch
From the original idea in my head this was never intended to be 'pretty' it was always going to be a dirty, rough bastard child of leftover parts.... and I'm happy to say I achieved just that

Haha i like it, looks like a dirty girl.
I have a wreck in the shed called the Street Sweeper, an ugly piece of trash, this just gave the incentive to drag it behind my car then kick its guts in, its had everything else done to it in its life![]()
F@&%$#g sensational result!
That's the May GOTM right there. Nobody else bother. Seriously!
