Hi people, this is my first Pit Bull guitar but i have built previous guitars mainly from parts purchased from eBay or donated, i have always wanted a Rickenbacker but the price put me off, my kit arrived in the UK in super prompt time and i hurried to open the box and examine what i had purchased. I am delighted with my purchase and i can't wait to get under weigh with it, amazed at the fit of neck to neck pocket, i may purchase a replica tail to replace the one supplied, nothing wrong with the one supplied but i would like a replica one, i have ordered the glue and some new clamps as my old ones died on me and i am wrestling with myself over colour i should apply, my heart wants to leave it natural wood but the demon in my mind is conjuring up all kinds of ideas. My previous builds have been a Strat in olympic white with maple neck and large headstock, a telecaster that i fitted with strat trem unit and gold humbuckers, finished in graduated black edge to dark wood, all gold fittings. I customized a Squire strat with scalloped fret board and new scratch plate loaded with twin humbuckers. Current work in progress rebuilding a Shergold stereo marathon bass, wondering what to do with a flying V copy i bought for £10 that was unplayable, its now playable but looks like a dogs dinner and given up on a Washburn strat style guitar i had given me that was a train wreck of a mess. Recent repairs Les Paul by Vintage with a broken neck.
Oh just to clarify my chosen weapon is the drum kit and i have played them for more years than i care to remember, i play guitar mainly acoustic classical, steel 6 string and 12 string.
