Hey guys,
I'm pretty new to this server so I'll give a quick overview of my previous builds. I've built 2 guitars so far, a Les Paul kit, and the Pitbull Guitars SV-1.
A few months ago I intended to order a Strat kit so that I could have a guitar to play in Standard Tuning with a Floyd Rose trem, the idea in my head was pretty close to Tom Morello's "Soul Power" guitar.. However when I asked for the specs I wanted, PBG told me that they couldn't alter the body shape so it didn't have body contours (I realised after that I probably could have asked for a solid body Thinline style kit). So I thought of any guitars I didn't have and that I would like, and my mind instantly jumped to an Explorer. Here are the specs:
- Basswood Body
- Maple Neck with Rosewood Fretboard
- Chrome Hardware (including Licensed Floyd Rose)
- 2 Volume Pots instead of 1 Volume and 1 Tone so I can use the toggle switch as a kill switch
- Bolt-on Neck (I don't feel comfortable with glueing a neck just yet)
- Artist Bullbucker Humbuckers (Neck and Bridge)
- Dimarzio Cliplock Strap
- Dunlop 10-52 Strings
The guitar will be painted a solid Gloss Black to match the Chrome Hardware. The kit should be arriving on Monday or Tuesday and I can't wait to get started on it.
