I've pretty much cleared my shelves of anything ebay-able that I don't use. Sad but it was needed. Now all I have left on the shelf is a hardtail strat body and most of the miscellaneous bits including three tuners and a Dangerous neck plate. The body is a botched nitro sunburst, my first. So over the summer and into the fall, I'll need a project that I can collect pieces slowly for, or I'll die of GAS. You all know how it is. Here are some of my musings.
I have realized that every humbucker guitar I buy eventually ends up for sale, so I'm not going to attempt that again. I'll have access to my dad's shop so I can do some routing, and re-finish the body in a solid color, and buff it properly on a wheel. If it's a tele bridge, I can fill the string holes and use the top loader that hipshot sells. Basically I want a telestrater, or a warmothy version of a G&L sc-2 hardtail. Your suggestions, gentlemen? This is all idle speculation of course.
