Andre S Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Whilst I still have about a month or so to get the current one off the table and into a case, if you could design your own guitar, any design (even your own) features and all what would you? I think my second may very well be a quilt top/flame maple top telecaster, with double binding, maybe a set Spanish Cedar neck and body or maybe mahogany, once I have some experience with using Spanish cedar, bound ebony or rosewood fingerboard and b5 bigsby.

milod Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Laugh at this old man if you will, but imagine a robot ES175 with Firebird X electronics and a master volume on the pick guard I could work with my pinkie and mosta the controls hidden by the pick guard. Then add a feedback inhibitor that cuts the wilder feedback freq. I think that'd kinda be like a Chevy four-door body over a proper V12 engined sports-racing chassis, racing tires and and a surround-sound system for the interior. <grin> m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shop? what is this mythica shop you speak of? You don't need a shop. My working area is a piece of plywood ontop of a keyboard folding stand. Tools are a router, jigsaw and drill and sanding drum for the drill Shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmurray Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I'd design it so it balances perfectly on your leg whilst playing in a sitting position. No electric guitar I've played does this properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea, I'm trying to decide whether I should put a belly scarf on my current guitar. Its a single cut type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sir need a fatter gut to hang over the top edge of your guitar then :P Again my beer belly wins something besides the race to cardiac arrest, ok I am not that fat but I like joking!
