Hypothetical* situation: Your daughter's school is having their annual fundraiser auction, and you're to either get some local business to contribute something, buy something to be auctioned off, or make something yourself. You're itching to build another instrument, and see this as the perfect opportunity, so you put in an offer to build a custom guitar or bass for the winner of your auction.
You don't want to put (& don't really have) megabux into a guitar that's not going to be your own, but you want to get the parts/kit to build something that's decent quality, so you set a hard limit of money to spend on parts/hardware/wood/etc: $500 (you'll be charging nothing for labor/time).
What are you going to do?
Please include specific parts/products/links/etc and some detail beyond "buy cheap strat or tele on craigslist, mod the f*** out of it, replace neck with Warmoth". :icon_jokercolor:
I already have a few fun ideas for stuff that's well within that budget, but I'm very curious to see what y'all come up with.
* Not actually hypothetical. ; )
