Completion:

*note... this thing is green as hell in person... I tried to take some shots without the flash to show how it looks. The camera flash makes it look really washed out and turquoise.

Beginning of Original Post:

I'm gunna make this pile of parts disappear and turn into an awesome guitar:

But first, lets have a look at some of the pieces...

102_2078.jpg


Is that a GREEN Air Norton 7 on the left? Why yes it is... what a fine color addition DiMarzio has made. We also have a green Blaze Single and a green Blaze Custom.

Also, very green. :agreed:

Ebony + Pyramids = :shred:

I hope your not forgetting about "my" little project:fawk:

Oh do you mean these?

102_2082.jpg


I just figured I'd hold on to those for a while... it's not like anyone is going to miss them. :fawk:

7:33 PM Update:

I have done.... nothing... :lol: I am seriously working on it now though and thought I'd take some more pictures of the swirl before I bolt parts all over it. I took the flash off so it wouldn't reflect so they are kinda dark...

9:06 PM Update:

I just did my least favorite part, mounting the pickups beneath the pickguard while in the guitar... :squint:

Now I must take two shots before continuing... :cheers:

11:11 PM Update:

Just got the pickups installed. :metal:
The hard part is over, now just to bolt her up and get some strings on!

11:25 PM Update:

The neck is bolted on... it kinda looks like a guitar now...

I want to say ditch the pickguard because a) I don't like them generally, b) it's clear....but the inner me is saying put it on now! Good luck. :hbang:

The jackass in the chair making a complete assclown of himself does kinda resemble Eric in a way:scratch:
