I decided to tell everyone about my project built guitar. Not strictly judge, as the main task was cheapness.
That's what is:

That's about what i should get:

In general the whole process will gradually spread and waiting for your advice and suggestions)) Please accept my apologies for my english.

May i ask why that neck-humbucker (i assume?) is actually rotated a bit? As it looks now, it looks like its overlapping the neck.
Nice detailed plans though, me likes! Are you an engineer?
Also, could you specify what pups etc you gonna use?
Looking forward for the first update ^^

Ah and the neck pickup? and its placement issue (could be my opinion)
Also, are you an engineer? Your plans make me think that :lol: (that's a good thing btw :))

It's not overlapping, the neck just has 27 frets on the low end, so it's cut on an angle and the humbucker rests against it.

Thenks for coments guys))
In neсk there will be no pick-up, due to the fact that the costs should be minimal.
As for drawing, I'm glad that you liked, and frankly it was my first experience in CorelDraw x5 .
Devotion, no I'm not an engineer)) but thanks for the nice words.
EMG-81 I'll use only because of the fact that I can get it from my LTD-1000. In what certainly is something else I can deliver.
The first phase - leveling, grinding, etc. 3 pieces of neck. A little later, many detailed picture.:hbang:

adhesive. And the piece of wood becomes more beautiful

At the same time decided to glue the old chair

Clamps are not enough, so just glue and two pieces of which will make headstock.


and the result

Sorry that it took so long to update the post

Next step::metal:
glue the head with the neck at an angle of 15 degrees (or will)

begin with, saw off the unnecessary parts

Frankly hacksaw is very uncomfortable, and curves.:noway: In the next time something else will use. As you can see from the photos, cut turned out not flat and certainly not 15 degrees.:realmad:

a small sketch of the contour of the head and my friend's Schecter:shred:

gradually begins to resemble the design of the head Shetster's one
