This is Kitty. I was obsessed with owning a surf green Jaguar, with matching headstock. I spent a year painting her (not many good lacquer days in San Francisco). Guitar Mill body, Allparts neck, and AVRI pickups. I love this guitar!
If I could also have an electric it would be a 3 pickup black beauty with a bigsby, a super distortion in the bridge, a P94 in the neck and a 6 way switch.
I actually couldn't live without this guitar anymore, since iv had this iv pretty much abandoned my SG.. I actually feel quite bad for her actually lol. As soon as i touched my AFD USA it was an instant love affair, she truly plays beautifully :]
Thanks! Yes, scratch build. Joe (my bro) created the lacquer tint himself with a medium white base nitro and tint pigments. It's slightly different than any colour of it's kind I've seen. I made a black one for him a few years before but it got stolen.
We were in the studio recording and he used this strat exclusively...I think this is probably one of the last things he ever played:[SC]http://soundcloud.com/freddygabrsek/not-a-haiku-solo[/SC]
Pretty easy one for me. My sunburst Warmoth strat. Callaham bridge and custom-wound 50's pickups, 12" fingerboard radius with smooth-as-glass jumbo stainless frets. I'm very proud of this guitar and it's been my #1 for a long time and probably always will be.
