Members Lone Flanger Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 I don't have a picture of it and I didn't do it, but back when I was in high school I had a friend that took the pickguard off of his bass, traced it, and cut out a piece of some old brown corduroy pants to replace it. It looked.....interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aramat effects Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 I'm sure they've been mentioned in the past, but these guitars are sick! (From a fellow Tucsonian to boot). They cost as much as a Hyundai though http://www.girlbrand.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amoodymule Posted April 23, 2006 Members Share Posted April 23, 2006 I came across this guitar by chance and the guy who sold it to me collected and made his own guitars, (he had many vintage strats) ...so he showed this guitar saying it was one of the first companys allowed to copy the strat... He said it was made in 1961, on the underside of the neck where it bolts on is a #13 stamped on it, and I would not know if it's truth or what. It had a white finish and I stripped it down to paint it black, then my dad got a hold of it and engraved some cool designs and I had him put a few more. It weighs a ton, playes ok. I will try to get better pics in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NoirAbattoir Posted April 26, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2006 Originally posted by ColorsoundKid This is an 80's Schecter PT Tele I decided to {censored} around with. That's a Frank Frazetta print I glued down to it. It has a light coating of clear-coat on the top. I believe it was Jack Black who once said: "Sometimes your heart cuts a fart. That's the cosmic shame..."I keep looking at this guitar and I am a bit horrified. I dunno... Maybe if I put some decent pickups into it and played it a bit it would grow on me. As of now, it's for sale. PM me reasonable offers. It has a hardshell case, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
