What a beautiful guitar.

You get rid of all the others??

'81 Gibson SG Standard...



It was a gift from my dad, though I didn't find out it was from him right away, it just showed up. It's the sidejack style model, which I love. I had an '80 one that I had to sell a couple years ago to pay bills when my son was born. That one was almost all non-original, since I bought it almost destroyed on the cheap 16 years ago and slowly fixed it up. I had it stripped, neck had to be shaved down (it had some really bad dings/gouges), refretted, rebound, refinished and replaced pretty much every part but the pickguard, pickup selector switch and trussrod cover. This one seems like it's still all original. Sounds great, feels great, looks cool. I've been having fun playing it the last week. Here's a pic of the old one...

Yeah man, only thing I have is my Pawnshop Mustang, but my girlfriend's claimed it

Made a new body for my Bastin neck.

Damn.

!!!!!!

I'll play!

My three latest guitars:




L to R:

Mustang from parts:
'76 body + '66 pickguard + '71 bridge + '65 tuners + '69 trem unit + '69 neck (stripped when I had it, now it has been refined to match with the body) + MojoPickups Mustang pickups + 60's control plate + CTS/Switchcraft/Cloth wire + Cream Coronado style knobs + super cheap chinese Strat cream closed pickup covers.
My favorite guitar (along with my Jaguar, also made from parts)

'66 Musicmaster II:
all original except for a "new" (vintage correct) '66 pickguard and the extra super cheap chinese Strat cream closed pickup cover.
I sent the original pickup to MojoPickups, needed a rewound.
Super comfortable 22'5" "A" neck, and full of Mojo guitar...a keeper.

Duo Sonic from parts:
'65 body + '77 neck + an old Allparts pickguard + '66 bridge plate + '69 tuners + '66 control plate + CTS/Switchcraft/Cloth wire + Red Coronado style knobs + MojoPickups Mustang pickups with Tele specs.
This is basically my Telecaster , I love her too...

Anyway,
It was some very fun months...
Looking forward to the next months!!!!!!

Fuckin god damn dude

Indeed. Those are all beautiful, especially together. The Mustang in particular, definitely digging the paint fading on the body.

Have you posted a pic of your Jag before?

Thank you guys

Yep, after some research, it was on page 556...
I'm currently working on a new guard though (the white one on the pic had been replaced with a black pickguard, but I don't like it).
The new one will be made off brass, with some relic work on it, has if it had been taken off a very old boat from Venice (Italy)...at least that's what I have in mind

Yepp, I commented on it to. Quoting for sexinesss. Wanna build me a bass?

'65 body + '77 Musicmaster neck w/ originals tuners + MojoPickups + CTS/switchcraft/cloth wires + Staytrem + mid 60's Vox knobs + custom control plates made in 1 ply red tort + cheap chinese pickguard + everything else from my previous CIJ Jag.


I couldn't be happier...

Those are all crazy gold looking, espacially the jag and duosonic, nomnomnom

Polished and put new strings on the Halcyon today so of course it was picture time
