Blueretard is building a guitar

[ELVIS]

Not bad, my blue brother, not bad at all...

If I had to critique it, I'd say the body should more closely follow the shape of the pick guard...

But a real guitar is less about looks than the sound, so who really cares...

It's getting very rare these days to see people actually do stuff like this...

Keep it up !!

Your skills are improving, Captain...

[bluemustard]

Almost done..waiting for hardware..did decals stuff

[Romeo Delight]

I really like this one...

[bluemustard]

Ok..time to put it all together..maybe finished today or monday.

[Romeo Delight]

Looks great. I really like how you have the sapwood part (lighter) on the middle like that.

[ELVIS]

Maybe an anodized gold pick guard would do the trick...

[bluemustard]

The bridge pickup doesn't work..straight out of the new box..have to send it all back..heard that happens some times.
The sound is awsome..guitar plays nice!

[bluemustard]

Also have grounding problems..getting a wildcat motif pickguard in the mail today..might use that one..but all shit aside i need new 69 customshop bridge pickup..also might carve the floyd pocket a lil more.
