You finish the guitar yourself? It's beautifulll....

Yeah. Its ReRanch Shell Pink.

The guitar came to me with a strange acrylic "easter egg swirl" finish. My buddy Bobby D found it in Key West & knew I'd been looking for an old Duo/Mustang/etc. Pretty much everything else on it is original & just oozing pre-CBS Fender goodness. The slab board neck is one of the sweetest things I've ever wrapped my hand around. Pickups are perfection, etc. Anyhow, you can read up on the finish it had when I got it, what I found under that finish & what I did about HERE.

Good stuff!

I don't go on shortscale enough...could I ask how much your total came out to? I've been trying for something similar myself. You can pm me it if you want...

Hmm,. . .not sure I totaled it up. Probably over $100 in materials, just a guess. I'll have to post up here about the guitar - it was a pretty cool/crazy project/story.

Awesome rig, Dan! Those amps...

This was tonight's situation. The board is basically how it usually is, but I loaned my Keeley TR-2 out and it's a mainstay on the board. I have a custom pedal coming that I designed to allow me to pull whatever I have in the loop of the modified AD900, out and in front of the AD900 with the stomp of switch...and back. The Gyro sounds amazing through the AD900's loop, but I also like using it direct as well hence the need for a way to toggle it in and out of the loop.

The signal:
Sonic Research Turbo Tuner
vintage MXR Envelope Filter
vintage MXR DynaComp
custom MJM China Fuzz
Sonic VI Champion Fuzz
Skin Pimp Samurai
Basic Audio Futureman
Malekko Vibrato (this is where the Keeley TR-2 usually sits)
custom Mojo Hand Luna (dual outs, here I split out to one amp)
modified Maxon AD900 (TB'd, effects loop, exp. jack for time, exp. jack for repeats)
Mojo Hand Gyro (in the loop of the AD900, and able to be toggled out once my router arrives)
Dr. Scientist miniRRR

...the blue pedal beneath the RRR is a Mojo Hand Ramp Unit which I use to control the Gyro and Luna (and 770 when it's on the board). Underneath the board, in the "trunk", is a Burkey Flatliner PRO and vintage MXR Power Converter as well as some more pedals that I keep powered, just out of the way.

Is that an old Kay Barney Kessel model?

Great setup, Ryan Tell me 'bout that Epi on the wall...

Yeah, and I'd like to know what the guitar on the floor is. It's hard for me to play any guitar anymore without P-90s, so RESPEK. I have a pretty beat-up old Korean Epiphone Casino and a Gibson Les Paul Faded Special. Love those '90s.

I don't think it's technically the BK model, but it has the BK pups also known as Kleenex Box pickups (and the biggest reason I got the guitar, they are hot and raunchy)

That's an Epiphone Sorrento, the single cut sister to the Casino. I picked that up new in '95 I think. They only reissued these for a couple of years, based on the '60's version but with P90's instead of mini-hums. Great playing guitar and it loves to be wound up tight. I often keep it in Open A for slide and it never needs tuning.

It's a '62-'63 Kay Jazz II with the much coveted "Kleenex Box" pups. Kay is reissuing this very soon, but they will make some changes and of course the pups won't be what these are...at least not internally. It can be smooth and warm or mean and bitey. It really is a jack of all trades and sounds great doing it. The neck is a bit thin so rhythm is much more comfortable than noodlin' your way up the neck for long periods of time. She's a looker though, and sounds great.

Current board but my de-7 is dying...which is sad because that is my very first pedal besides the old dod grunge pedal.
