'83 Strat - I swapped some of the controls and covers to black, and put in a hot rails in the bridge.
Ibanez RG8 - stock, though I wouldn't mind trying new pickups.
Parker Fly Mojo - stock as well

That Parker is fuuuuckin beautiful. If that was trans-black I'd be all over it.

Thanks Excane, wanted one since they came out in the mid 90s. Finally got one a few years back as a self birthday present.

They are an unusual beast. How do they feel/sound? I think if Jimi Hendrix were alive today he would probably play one.

Love that Parker with the trans purple burst!

OK guys quickie drone video of the Fuzz Factory partscaster. Didn't have time to drag out the mics and actually record it into garageband so this is with my DSLR.

There's a few not in here, but this is what I am primarily rotating between right now…looking at this shot makes me feel like I need to get a pelham or lake placid blue guitar next…

Currently awaiting for this to arrive…



When it arrives the immediate mods include:
new pots
new switches
new pickups
new caps
new aluminium nut

I'll also probably age the binding and inlays slightly….
Also considering a 3ply black white black pick guard….

Whoa, details necessary.

Pretty different from what I've played otherwise. Very articulate and tons of sustain considering it weighs 4.5ish pounds. I love the tiny neck and the stainless frets, it feels really slick.
Mine has the piezo pickups in the bridge, and can either run it in single, stereo, or blended mono between the two systems.

I have two issues with the design, the back of the upper horn is kinda square, and jabs me in the chest if I am sitting down to play, and similarly the jack is in such a place that it makes sitting down with the guitar a little awkward. Kinda wish it had an output jack/strap button.

here's the collection (there's a tele custom as well but I'm on the fence about it):

Took the GFS Loudmouth out of my bassVI and routed the Harmony Archtone for it. I forgot that it's wound to like 18k and even lowered all the way it has a ton of output, so I'm just gonna make a volume box for it 'cause fuck fishing components through the guitar again. Also I added a coil split and it makes a much more discernible difference in this than it did in the neck of the VI. I really like it.
The bridge is cobbled together from the original busted-up one and a Kawai.
.13 Chromes tuned B E A Eb F C
Middle pickup best pickup.

Duuuuuuuuuude

Yeah, that thing is fucking sick all around. So good Achtane!

ACHTONE

that thing is so badass.

Thanks breauxs
The neck's big so it's automatically a thousand times more playable than any other guitar I've had, even though the action is a little high and non-adjustable. Much more comfortable.
Before, I was even daydreaming about converting a bass to six-string and just using really thin strings from Circle K or somethin' so I'd have a playable neck with wide enough spacing.

Consider: Piccolo Bass VI
