So today (yesterday at this point?) I made a drive down an hour south and picked up a 2014 Schecter KM7. I bought it for next to nothing knowing that it was in very rough shape. Well, once I picked it up I realized it was in much rougher shape than I initially thought. The neck was broken off at one point and reset, the pot/switch were missing, the bridge is missing a saddle, and three of the original tuners were missing amongst other smaller issues. Hell, when I picked it up half the strings that were actually on it were bronze acoustic strings lol. All that being said, the Nazgûl/Sentient pickups were still there and the body/neck were in good condition (despite the mess made when it was reset). This is going to be one hell of a project, but I’m very excited to jam on it once it is finished.

Well, she’s finally done. Last couple months have been hectic so this took a lot longer than planned. Whoever thought the little 1”x3” electric cavity was a good idea needs better ideas… lol
