Howdy. After lurking here for a LONG time, I didn't feel comfortable posting until I had actually accomplished my own build. So here's my very first build - The Spirit of '72
Body from Bernie Hefner: 3 lb/8 oz 1-piece Swamp Ash with reduced & contoured heel - $165
Factory second neck from GuitarFetish - missing one marker dot from top of board at 12th fret - $19
Pickups from GuitarFetish: Fat Pat (10K) neck & Lil' Puncher (15K) bridge - $65
Pickguard & Hardware from Warmoth - approx $100
From gun store: Birchwood-Casey Tru-Oil finish, 6 coats - $12
From guitar show: Fender amp knobs, Fender bridge with sides hand cut with angle grinder - $38
Push/Pull Pots & Sprague Orange Drop caps from local electronics surplus - $18
Satisfaction from posting my first build after years of delays - $Priceless!
Extra Special Kudos to the regular posters on this board, without whom I would have made many more newbie mistakes than I actually did. :headbang1: Mucho Thanks!
