Fender/Warmoth Hybrid..

[m4rk0]

Finally done...I still have some pickup rings for the SC.. but am taking some time if I like it better without..
the clean line dye was fun to do and worth all the taping.. now I am done, I probably would have prefered a shade darker though...

Very cool!

I think that color turned out pretty awesome.

Is that a standard locking nut or is something different about it?

 

[m4rk0]

oh totally forgot the before pics:

an 80s Japanese Fender neck, and a 90s Korean (HM?) Squier body...

do bridge is a Floyd Rose II, but the nut is a Kahler (one that goes with a Spyder). I will get replacements for the locks from Wammi world soon, but in the meantime, I Will put some of my own on (I have the same nut on a Westone Villain)

oops. forgot to add pictures of my cat to draw the attention from the mistakes I made!!!

this is "poes", which is just dutch for 'cat'.  she is very weird, likes to sit on paper and plastic bags, she drools, smells a little weird and worst of all, she looks like Adolf Hitler.. but we still like her..

 

[Nando Vallart]

:laughing7: Lovely cat!

I would have done the whole guitar the same color as the top.  'Looks great.

 

[CrackedPepper]

The color is very nice Märkeaux, you should have no regrets.  This is a definite owner finished GOTM contestant for April, n'est-ce pas?

 

[llmtelecaster]

LOL Cat Supremacist. Nice looking finish on that body, too. Makes me nervous seeing a guitar that pretty so close to a swimming pool.

Looks great.  I would not change a thing!  Did you get the floyd issues worked out?
That Whammy pad looks killer :hello2:

Thanks again!!
I had to do a lot of Sanding in certain areas to make the floyd fit.. (same for the neck pocket)
It didn't turn out perfect, but it is good enough

 

[dmraco]

did you lift the electronics directly from the donor?  Looks like the blue guitar is your next project.  Get sanding!

Yes, most of it has been directly moved to the new body.. mayne I will strip it one day
first I have an unfinished Pine Tele Body to attack (I don't even know what to do with it yet  :dontknow
And I think I need to start sanding this Westone Bass, which I want to restore...

that cat is ugly as crap. cat owners...ugh.....their whole house smells like cat pee.....

 

[JimBeed]

Amazing guitar, and hehe funny cat, could do with him to squish recycling paper down into the box we have for it and he would be happy, would i be able to have him on loan?  :laughing7:

Nice bass, never heard of westone before, but what should it look like? guessing the graphics are owner added?

Hachi, i cant believe you actually went and did that, now im not going to say anything on the matter, but grow up.
If you want to say S*** to me aswell, pm me, dont clog this thread up

Markeaux, awesome guitar, keep up the good work  :icon_thumright:

 

[hachikid]

sucks when people post unnecessary crap in your thread, right? especially when asked to stop.

I can't believe that some people don't understand how awesome cats are.. there surely must be something wrong with them!!
it could be possible that only people with a superior taste in pets like cats.. I am glad that I am part of that elite group of people who understand the awesomeness of cats..

 

[hachikid]

pets suck in general. along with the people that own them.

thanks Man!!
yes, someone added the graphics and pin striping and slapped on some kind of clearcoat on top.. I will just strip it and finish it with Danish or Tru oil..
I will be happy to outsource the cat!!

 

[JimBeed]

Ah right nice, be good to see it without them on it 

Im frequently outsourced to one of my girlfriends pet cats as a cushion haha
