while the army was dead....

[Matt White]

Always kept a pedalboard full of goodies for on the fly "colouring".
Still use a rack. Although I'm not one of these guys who process's themselves into oblivion. I love the versatility.

Tech 21 preamp> Digitech DSP 256>Digitech Super Harmony Machine (Since replaced with a Rocktron Super 2 Hush unit) powered by a Marshall EL-34 50/50 Monoblock in stereo into late 60's vintage Marshall slant+Hiwatt straight.

LOL
very nice...

I still use my Rocktron Intelliflex with my Marshall....though I've add numerous pedals over the last few years....

[Sarge]

this is the best looking guitar in my collection. I built it last summer.





is your No.1 cooler than mine?

That is awesome. Where is the neck from?

I f%*kin love the Intellifex! The way the delay still decays when you switch channels is brilliant. I've been thinking about getting one for years to replace the DSP 256 because of that and the fact that it hsas a higher processing rate .

What are you powering your pedals wif?

I'm using the Voodoo labs Pedal Power. Fairly compact with 8 isolated power supply's.


Much cleaner juice than the "wall wart' type and def. worth the $$$...

[indeedido]

Indeedido..that Lynch "Tiger" replica is BAD ASS....

Thanks! The white feathering around the edge was the hardest part. That is a one shot deal. I got it buffed up this weekend, dig the mirror shine!

Same here, love it. I have the Pedal Power II, the one that allows you to run two Line 6 units, powers my DL-4 and MM-4 that are running in the effects loop of my Boogie Mk III...

...is your No.1 cooler than mine?

Ah, grasshopper...while your Number 1 is pretty, mine will f*ck yours, and it's mama, and entire family up... LMAO :D

Nice!

Put this together a few months ago.
Bridge pickup: Dimarzio Tone Zone T
Neck Pickup: Dimarzio Area T neck

Killer...as for the neck and body...Warmoth parts? USACG? Tell us more...

[rustoffa]

This one is a little brighter than the white one. Full-on fucking METAL.

[Sarge]

Killer...as for the neck and body...Warmoth parts? USACG? Tell us more...

Specs:
Warmoth Birdseye Maple boatneck with vinatage tint and stainless steel frets.
Corian Nut
Wilkinson bridge with compensated saddles.
Bridge pickup: Dimarzio Tone Zone T
Neck Pickup: Dimarzio Area T neck
Body: 3.2 lb Black Korina Warmoth hollow t (hollowed like a honeycomb) Black Kornia has a similar tone to mahogany.
Schaller Locking Tuners: satin finish
Electromatic jack
Dunlop Straplocks
Callaham control plate with heavy Callaham knurled knobs.
Pearloid Pickguard with Callaham stainless screws.
Callaham ferrules.
Fender Corona Neck Plate
I ordered a preassembled control plate from Acme guitarworks.. but when i got it I figured out that is was wired completely wrong. They even wired the output jack backwards. To top it off.. I waited 3 months for it! I will never order from them again!
After redoing the wiring here is what I got
4 way tele wiring with the bottom tone pot being a push-pull that is a kill switch when pulled up. Nice touch

Paint: Done by "PAINTGUY" from thegearpage.net. This is the second guitar that Larry has done for me and I can't express how cool this guitar looks. I am very happy with the finish and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone! I sent him a couple of pictures of a hot rodded motorcycle painted in Lime Green and he did his best to match the color.
The color is "Kandy Lime Green Metallic" (Correct me on that if I am wrong Paintguy) and is very.. very "hey look at me" shiny! It looks cool as hell!
The painted headstock is a cool touch and the fretboard is silky smooth!

Weight: 6.5 pounds
Sound: The guitar is a total rawk machine! The bridge pickup (Tone Zone T) sounds very thick. The guitar reminds me of a SG on the bridge pickup. I play Rock and Roll and this totally covers it. I am guessing that the very thick neck adds to the beef-e-ness of the guitar.
The neck pickup is a Dimarzio Area T and is a great match with the bridge. With the neck pickup on the 4th position it combines the neck and bridge together.. and gives a Les Paul tone. The neck pickup sounds great clean. It can cop some great surf and SRV/Hendrix tones and with a simple tone knob adjust.. blusey neck pickup tones.
The tele was fully shielded using Stew-mac copper paint and copper tape. The pickguard was shielded with copper tape as well. I used the star ground method to connect the cavities. The Dimarzio pickups are totally quiet by design. This is the only guitar that I have that is dead silent.. until you strike a chord. The first time I plugged it in I was wondering if I wired it wrong because it didn't make ay noise.. well.. until I struck the strings.
Here are a few pics!

I took it from the "Mary Kaye" strat that Japan Fender crafted. I bought that guitar only for the neck for 500 bucks, to build my own "Mary Kaye".

Very nice! I have two complete Warmoth builds and another Strat with a Warmoth neck, they make top notch parts. I had a similar experience the first time I wired up a set of Dimarzio Virtual Vintage pickups too...DEAD silent until you strike a string...gotta love that, though it's disconcerting at first! :D



I must investigate this "PAINTGUY" of whom you speak for a future build...
