This is a great track, although I do agree with Azrael, the vocals need a bit of a boost. Otherwise its great! A really interesting track, Ill be on the lookout for it when its released

Here is the finished thing!

Can I please get the tabs to Demo 3?! That sounds so chill I love it

When my new pickup arrives I'll dive straight into this :D

I just ordered VIP tickets for Devin Townsends Casualties of Cool gig in London. I'll be meeting Devy in 3 months! :D

The whole point of building your own guitar is having the guitar YOU want. :grin:

Thats true! :D And Ive ordered myself some string trees

String trees are a necessity with this kind of guitar. There's not enough downward tension to keep the strings in the nut otherwise. But string trees are cheap.

 

You can buy decal paper and make your own logo - I've done it. In fact, I have a couple left over from my own Stratobastard build (same concept -- Tele body with a Strat headstock) if you'd like. They're easy to apply.

Thanks for the advice, the pickup should arrive by the end of this week/next week, so Ill order some string trees before then.

As much as I love free stuff I like the unfinished look it has. For me decals and paint would make it looks worse (just my taste!)

Wow, looks great! How much did it cost you to put it together..? You should be able to sell them if you advertised or did a deal with a guitar shop. You can get decals to put on the headstock from eBay as well as engraved neck plates.

All together, plus an EMG 81, maybe £350? I havent really added it all together but around the $300-350 mark. And Seeing as its my first build this is my new main guitar, plus I want something to brag about at University ;D

You may find you need a string tree for the B and high E strings.

 

TBH, it looks better than the Telecrapster I built a few years back.

I was thinking about string trees, might invest into some in the near future. And thanks! Im really proud of it, finally got some strings today. Just waiting on a return for the pickup

Yeah, if you could post pictures of it that would be ideal, theres probably a cheap way to fix it

Something about it.... yeah. No I think it's a beautiful guitar even if it's initial design throws me a bit. Solid clean lines, tunomatic bridge, simple controls. Looks like a peach.

Im glad you like it, the 'something special' is the fact that I made it myself. Unfortunately the pickup was faulty and I've had to send it back

There's something special about it...!

If the neck pocket is still in shape you can buy pre-made necks pretty cheap, just bolt on a new one

Nevermind, fixed it. For those who need to know go to Song > Track > PART_REAL_GUITAR

Like it says in the title, I asked this back on SA and I forgot how to change it. I read this http://customsforge.com/topic/841-how-to-make-cdlc-full-in-depth-tut-completed/ but it is still the same

I just bought some TUSQ picks, I have to say they really are very good, I can really tell the difference on my acoustic 

Im going to Sonisphere at Knebworth so:

Metallica

Mastodon

Gojira

Devin Townsend

Dream Theater

Alice in Chains

:D
